I think you should also look into using completeness-optimized basis
sets, which have been shown to outperform conventional
energy-optimized basis sets for e.g. magnetic properties, see the
following article and citing work.
P. Manninen and J. Vaara, "Systematic Gaussian basis-set limit using
completeness-optimized primitive sets. A case for magnetic properties",
J. Comp. Chem. 27 (2006), pp. 434 - 445.

You can generate completeness-optimized primitive sets with, e.g.,
Kruununhaka or ERKALE, which are both freely available online and can
output basis sets in the format used by Gaussian.
