Tire upgrade thoughts please?

What do you guys suggest as a substitute for the RT-615's or the XS's then? Those are my go-to tires, but no sizes I can use. I was planning on

What do you guys suggest as a substitute for the RT-615's or the XS's then? Those are my go-to tires, but no sizes I can use. I was planning on a set of R-11's, but they are quite pricey and rather heavy.

Any suggestions for something bubblegum sticky, with a wear rating < 200, R compound or near-R in stickiness, (max summer I guess) that is also lighter than the stockers?

No new suggestions from GRM as far as I can see -- last big review I can find was the Texas Toast shootout...

Short lifespan is okay, although I do need something at least relativley suitable for a DD (so no track only tires -- I know R888 is pushing it for DD, but I also know folks who run them and get about a yr or so use).

Thanks
