I haven't had too many problems with Martin strings not holding up, but try DR Vertas. They have similar high and lows but richer mids than a Martin, but you probably won't notice too much of a difference on a mahogany or rosewood guitar but they hold up pretty well.
I'm lazy and probably change them at most every couple months.
Do you use the gold plain strings, or the silver ones? Do you hear/feel a difference?
For myself, the presence of those two extra strings in the set causes stress to my sense of order. I typically don't break strings, so I wind up with two extra brand-new strings that I will never need, but can't bring myself to throw away.
