I think you are going to have the best luck with the stock size in LRR.
The narrower tires are going to be pushing the limit of their weight range so you are going to have to have them at max pressure just to compensate for the cars weight.

The per mile cost of a 40,000 mile tire compared to a 90,000 mile tire also needs to be kept in mind, even if they 40,000 mile tire was half the price you would still have to pay for mounting tires twice, here that is $20 per tire.

Michelin Defenders tires also have some of the best reviews.
