Tires Maxxis or VITOUR

Longest lasting super 200 is the Vitour P1. Affordable, fun sizes, and they LAST a long time while keeping up with the top dogs. Got a set this year and I love them. Put 6,500 miles plus 25 AX runs and they've barely worn.

Vitour Galaxy R1 155R15, $63.89 each

Why a solid rib down the center?

These are vintage VW beetle size, 15 inch rim 4.5 inch wide. FWIW they have good reviews on the seller's website

well, if your in japan my shop just recieved a 24x2.4 dhf. It’s s very high quality tire!

Vitour P1 for a long lasting 200tw that's only a hair behind the Hoosier. They also handle heat well, and come in some creative sizes

The only thing I’d add is I’d suggest them in Maxxspeed, but they are only available in 2.35. Rode them front/rear last season and they were excellent.

I've been really impressed recently with the Conti tires (Cross Kings or Race Kings depending on how XC you want to go with it), specifically the ProTection versions with the Black Chili compound. Coming from Maxxis stuff I've been surprised by the amount of grip they have given how fast-rolling they are, at least for my local conditions (New England, so rocks, roots, more roots, a few roots, some roots, roots, rocks, roots, some more roots, a lot of roots, and roots.)

2.4 Rekon Race Front 2.4 Aspen ST. This is the fastest combo I have ever run. Same type of trails hard pack.

I am not a fan of ardents. They roll fast but have a habit of loosing grip when you least expect it and suck at regaining grip once they start to slide. I'm running Recons front and back and really like the set up. They roll pretty fast and are usually very predictable.

I've had a good string of flats on my DTHs, but they're such a great tyre otherwise that I could never be mad at them. They're also so big and floppy they're a breeze to remove, unlike most "puncture resistant" tyres.

Maxxis is a shit tire company. Their quality is atrocious pretty much post covid
