I've run lots of different pads/compositions over the years. Stock pads usually are the longest lasting, but have the worst performance. Any performance pad will wear out faster - that's it's nature. For street, I usually recommend Hawks. HPS is the lowest end street pad that they make.

What car is it? How much does it weigh? What is it's weight distribution? What tires are you running? Size? What weight are each of your wheels? What rotors do you have? Size?
You need to know these things before you can really accurately pick a pad.
If you don't know all these answers, then go with Hawk HP+, but expect a good bit of brake dust. That's a rough guess of what you might need.

depends on car, driver, set up, so many things. and by longest lasting brakes do you mean brake set up? brake pads? brake fluid?
