No.2 if you have to use one of the three. Why? Because you will be riding on pavement 99% of the time, no?
I don't care much about speed. I want stability. I will be riding on pavement, in the bike lane, on gravel, and sometimes on a little grass.
Yes, the side lugs bother me on No. 1 for turning on pavement....I have run the "No. 3 " tire and it's just plain bad.
I like #2 because the center strip will help reduce the vibration on the bars when you're cruising the streets.
#2 is defo a winner, smooth center for speed/efficiency/wear/less vibration but still has some bite for other than pavement.
Mine's a touch more aggressive, but I do a lot of trails. The interlocking centerband makes a world of difference on pavement!

#2 looks like the Kenda's on one of my bikes. Works great, is a smooth street ride and handles dirt roads also.
