keeping in mind that all low rolling resistance tires have made compromises which have made the tire's performance in braking and wet weather traction less than many of the tires which are not marketed as low rolling resistance.

Just had to correct you here. All the studies I have seen do not back this statement up. LRR tires have to be taken on a case by case basis. In a recent tire test in Europe many of the LRR tires tested had higher traction numbers than the HRR tires. In fact the two top tires were LRR. The Nokian H came out first in the test followed closely by the Michelin Energy saver. This was in a group of premium tires of which 4 out of 9 were LRR. Nokian also sells a LRR snow tire, the Hakka R which is one of the best winter tires out there. On the other hand, the famously ultra LRR Bridgestone B381 for the insight is a pretty mediocre tire in the traction dept. The carcass has a lot to do with LRR which does not factor into traction much. It's all about quality
