How to Determine Most Efficient Tire

Hi guys, I'm looking at new tires and unfortunately the specs available are just not that great to compare which tire is most efficient. I know LRR is the big spec to effect efficiency, but it seems weight is the only spec I can find and even that is difficult as I have to really dive into the Google to find it.

Is there a way to compare which tire is more efficient? I know they measure LRR in kg/t, but that spec is just not provided anywhere.

If it helps, I'm looking at a 265/70R17 tire although the width and height are subject to change depending on what's available.
