Not really sure why you think the clear oring is too sticky. That friction comes from having a tight internal diameter which prevents leakage. The loose feeling you get from the blue oring and xring is due to the fact that they have a larger internal diameter and hence the leakage.
just trying to keep things as smooth as possible and clear is noticeably more
drag, stiction, sticky, you know.
x rings in my offroad stuff are dialed.
dropped in some 70 durometer Tamiya x rings yesty and they are like a sieve.
one run and all 4 sat in a puddle of their own making
thought there may be a trick of the week plastic shim of some sort
