This is a good topic as most riders are comically over-tired (as in too grippy/ too slow/ too heavy of a tire for their needs) at a minimum. It's amusing watching guys install grippy tires so they 'don't slip' and then proceed to ride 20% slower everywhere.
I'm certifiable WW in that I always try to find the product that does the job but also has class leading weight when possible, and it doesn't slow me down.
