I have the Performance line right now. They're fine, but not tubeless ready. If you don't plan on going tubeless, I'd say get the cheaper/lighter Performance. Snakeskin means an extra layer of material on the sidewalls. Very useful if you ride in areas w/ sharp rocks that damage tires regularly. Also quite useful when riding tubeless as sidewall damage can end your ride.
BTW, very positive experiences purchasing Schwalbes German mail-order sites.
