There are mixed experiences - taller tyres helped some members, but others saw a drop in mpg.
If you increase the tyre size, don't overdo it.

The RE92 are only LRR in the size used for the Insight, the other R92s are very different tyres.

If you check the slowly leaking tyre, I'd expect you to find a puncture with the culprit still wedged in it.
I've had a repaired motorcycle tyre leak down to 20-25 psi and no lower, due to air seeping out around the plug that it was repaired with.
