Instead of copying the entire styles, you can actually base the
SubInput/SubOutput styles directly off of whatever Mathematica's existing
Input/Output styles are, which is less work and more portable across versions of
Mathematica.  Here's a version of what I'm talking about, with the appropriate
GeneratedCellStyle option set (which is the option you were looking for):

{
Cell[StyleData["SubInput", StyleDefinitions -> StyleData["Input"]],
 CellMargins->{{90, Inherited}, {Inherited, Inherited}},
 GeneratedCellStyles->{"Output"->"SubOutput"}],

Cell[StyleData["SubOutput", StyleDefinitions -> StyleData["Output"]],
 CellMargins->{{90, Inherited}, {Inherited, Inherited}}]
}

Copy the above list into your stylesheet, replacing the previous versions of
SubInput and SubOutput, and you'll have something that works like you want, I
think.
