Best Grass Seed Mixture for MN

Hello-

I have a question about which grass seed/blend is best to overseed my yard with. I live about 10 minutes north of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota, which is a zone 6/7, depending on which map you're looking at. I plan on overseeding in late August, so I'm trying to set up a plan right now. I'm not sure which grass seed blend is best for my zone and yard. I have about 3,000 square feet. Very light foot traffic. I have moderate shade, about 3 trees that are approximately 15' wide. I don't have an irrigation system, so that's why I'm not going straight KBG. I've seen several different seed mixtures out there, from 40 KBG/40 Rye/20 Fescue to 90 KBG/10 Rye and others in between. I was just wondering what you guys think the best mixture for my situation is. Thanks!
