Did you end up with the SS? I got an SS for NZ riding (dry) and put a DHR on the front last year. I dislike the DHR on the front (fast rolling but unpredictable, a la highroller), but the SS has been remarkable even in the wet. Except I keep tearing knobs off. I don't think I can really run it if I tear knobs off on relatively tame trails, despite my affection for it otherwise. I'm curious to see what others think of it as I've never had tyre durability issues in the past.

I was thinking that the Minion SS didn't look like it would have much, if any braking ability if run on the front, so wanted a tyre that would have that attribute. I was assuming that the DHF would have less rolling resistance than the DHR, but more braking than the SS.
