Tires Maxxis or LANDSAIL

It'll be fine. I have Rekon 2.4 WT on 28mm internal width rims and they feel great.

I just put minions DHR WT and DHF WT on my line elite 30s on my Slash and size wise they fit great and are awesome to ride.

I run 2.5 assguy and 2.4 dhr2 on 30mm rims, completely fine.

Maxxis DTH come in 2.3! But I find the 2.1's to be bouncy enough - havent tried 2.3.

Works pretty well for me. I run 2.3" Maxxis DHR II.

DHR II 2.4WT exists in double down and EXO casing at least in 27.5 -- I own both.

I have liked maxxis crossmark.

On my XC hardtail I have a Maxxis 2.4 Ardent on the front, and a Maxxis 2.2 Ikon on the rear. It is a great combo so far.

Ardent rolls well but is lacking in traction. If you want to take corners fast, I would stay away from Ardent in the front - there is a dead zone between the middle and side knobs that will feel vague especially when cornering.

If the DHFs are hard to mount on a given rim, particularly Stans, wait till you try a Maxxis Ikon. One of the hardest tyres I've ever installed.
