From my experience, worrying about tires can be a lot in the mind. The more you think about it, the more you notice every little slip, and the more you worry that you've got the wrong tires. Granted, there's a lot of difference between tires, and you need to find good ones for what you ride, but try not to over analyze them. That's just my opinion.
I ride Minion 2.35 and I know they're great for me as I've ridden really well in very bad conditions. Sometimes I get a bit shaky and start thinking "are these tires ok?" but have to remind my self that it's not the tires, it's me!
