Great review. Love 'em! My closet endurance race geek pulls back a bit from your choices:
Race-y Bike 2.4s: XR4 front XR3 rear for riding, XR3 front XR2 rear for racing.
Trail Bike 2.4s: XR4 front SE3 rear for riding, and up to XR4 in 2.6 for trips to places like Moab.
I'm just a roundish tire profile guy. Of course they have a bit less ultimate grip than some of the edgier tires out there, but oh baby, the communication at the limit can't be beat.
