I am gonna need new tires soon and wondering if an Intense Dual Compound WC would be a good choice for the front. Currently I am running Intense 909 Fro lites front and back and I like them. They are just pretty heavy. I would also like a tire with very low rolling resistance. I ride mainly DH and not a lot of FR, but I need a tire that can handle it though. As far as trails I ride are dry, rocky hardpack and dusty Phoenix trails.

The WC is a nice rear tire, i wouldn't run it as a front. It feels alot like a semislick, but with a bit more braking bite. I'd run it with a DH front tire. Makes a nice combo.
It'll roll much faster than a 909 combo for sure.
