I've also noticed that some places sell wedgetop in black SBR - does anyone know how this compares to the standard tan rubber stuff, in terms of grip and wear?

The only thing with more grip than roughtop is roughtop.
But seriously, I've seen some claim that the blue nitrile roughtop tread from mcmaster is much more grippy than the tan stuff andymark sells. I've even heard it gets grippy-er with age.
Also, the vexpro solid wheels dig in really well when they are new.
Specifically about the black sbr rubber:
It's pretty soft. I'd guess about 40A. Would grip better than nitrile on a smooth surface, but not likely on carpet.
