I bought my LRR tires off TireRack. I tried to buy them local but they couldn't get them for me. They would have cost a little more locally, but they were $50/ea. The cheapest 13" tire I can get for the car is $40, but those are 155/80/13s. The LRRs I got are 175/70/13s of which the cheapest I can find are $46. So, the premium for LRR is pretty small IMO. There are also plenty of tires more expensive than the LRRs too (up to $75/ea). The cost seems to be in the middle to low end of the pack. The reviews for the tire were pretty good too.
