I've got a pair of the enduro and love them! For £12.50 you can't argue. A friend has a pair of the stickyer one, the trail. I had a bit of a ride on whites level in the wet the other weekend and didn't notice a massive difference.
I think.where that difference will will show, will be in the longevity of the tyre.

Trail - hard rubber/wire bead, basic sidewalls. Heavy and bad
Enduro - hard rubber, stronger (Maxxis EXO copy) sidewalls, Kevlar folding bead. Works Tubeless, good for a back tyre.
Trail extreme - as Enduro, but dual compound rubber(hard centre soft on edges) for mix of good corner grip and low rolling resistance. I run this one tubeless as a rear tyre. £15!!!!!!!!!!

Ps - this is all written on their website! 🙂

Trail extreme has much softer compound on the edges of the tyre

More for extreme cornering really, given that the rest of the tyre is already quite a soft compound

Enduro works for me very well (unless the ground is really soft/loose)
