Those tires cannot be directly compared to eachother.

The RE01R will outperform them all but wont last very long on a DD.

Why do you want griping tires? Wouldn't tires that gripped be much better?

The REO1Rs are a great tire, but won't last long in DD applications. Same goes for the Azenis-615's, though they might last longer than the REO1Rs will on the street. The Azenis are also a cheaper tire to find & great tire for the price. Neither will be any good in the cold.
