Opinions on three tires

Can anybody comment on the durability of the Michelin XL, Hutchinson "On the rocks" and Nashbar "Multi-purpose" tires? I'm currently using a Geax Grid tire, and the rubber is far too soft for my rocky conditions - the narrow knobbies are tearing off the tire very quickly. I have some Cheng Shin tires that have plenty of tread on them after 12 years of heavy use, so I know MUCH better durability is possible.

(I edited the list to make it 3 tires, but somehow the edited title refuses to take effect.)
