Good to "see" you here on EcoModder. I have run across way too many people in several different forums to be able to remember where (let alone when!) we first got acquainted.

I would recommend the Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 16" tires that came on our 2015 Leaf S. They are the lowest RR all season tires that I am aware of. They stick well enough, though I don't know how long they will last.

The Leaf S doesn't have the navigation system, so I can't calibrate the odometer. Though, it is odd that last year when I calibrated the Leaf, I had to subtract 2.3%, and this year (after swapping the Nokian Hakka R2 back off), they only are 1.7% too high.

The R2's by the way are even better RR than the stock Ecopia tires. They are simply amazing rolling resistance tires.
