Default Truggy Tire Compound Comparisons

So I'm surprised there isn't a source for information regarding the differences between the compounds from each manufacturer. I'm trying to determine which compounds from each are the same or close to each other. If you have run any of these brands in their various compounds feel free to comment on how they compare!

Hot Bodies Pink (Super Soft) vs. AKA Super Soft vs. Duratrax C3 (Super Soft)

Hot Bodies Red (Soft) vs. AKA Soft vs. Losi Green vs. JConcepts Blue (Soft) vs. Duratrax C2 (Soft)

Hot Bodies White (Medium) vs AKA Medium vs. Losi vs. JConcepts Yellow (Medium)

I'm sure there are more out there...but I really just need to know how the different compounds compare to each other. I understand which tires work better on different tracks, but I'm really looking for a hands on "how does it feel" answer here. It's as simple as this...which rubber compound is softer than the other...are all of the medium compounds pretty close...are the soft compounds close...etc.

Thanks
