While all true, the amount of sacrifice needed in wear and grip has decreased in recent years compared with improvements in rolling resistance.

OP, I believe your tire size is P225/50R17? I usually cross-shop TireRack and Amazon. TireRack lists a ton of options in your size:

The Ecopias are a good bet. Michelin Defender and Energy Saver are both well known LRR tires as well, and could be good options - which is not to say they're necessarily better than other LRR tires listed there, I just don't know about them.
