I daily Rivals. I just keep in mind when I encounter conditions that might be difficult and take it easy. I think DD RE71s would be fine if you follow the same rule. These types of tires do last quite a while when not being used up competitively.
I just rented a new Fiat 124 in Italy. It had a set of Bridgestone S001s (280TW). They were quiet, smooth and had a lot of grip from the standpoint of street driving. I was impressed. Not quite an RE71, but quite a nice compromise. May do a set of those next for the daily.
