Tire Dilemma

96 900SET, tires are all 205/55-16. Fronts are in warranty from the Bridgestone shop, Potenza RE92: RF has 4000 miles and looks OK but seems to be wearing kinda fast, replaced an earlier RE92 that failed under warranty. LF has 12000 miles and is badly worn, wear bars coming out and smooth on the outside shoulder, probably toast. Rears are Bridgestone Turanza T (came on car when I bought it 35000 miles ago): RR has a dandy sidewall cut I just noticed. Toast. LR has a very slow leak and the wear bars suggest replacement in a few thousand miles anyway, probably worthless.
I’d like to move to the S-03s but part of me really hates to toss the perfectly good guy on the right front. Or is it better better just to replace all four at once and not look back? If I go for a full set, best to go back to the official OEM 205/50 profile? Advice from the experts?
Also, if I get them from Tirerack, no problem taking them to the local Bridgestone logo shop for warranty issues?
Thanks in advance and sorry for so many questions in one post.
