Tires Uniroyal or Maxxis

The maxxis dth in the 2.3 has been my absolute favorite commuter tire for a long time. I still can't believe how light they are compared to other tires of this size. Tire tread is great for pavement and hard pack. Even had them out for some serious loaded touring and praised them.

I’ve had these tires on my Subaru for the past five years and they’ve been great. 60k on them and still some life left.

Went from dhf/dhr II combo to kryptotal enduro soft fr/re and never coming back to maxxis

The Tiger Paw is still one of the best designed SUV/Truck tires made, and it's been around for a long, long time. I run them on my SUVs. Love 'em.

I really like the DHR as a front tire. I run it F/R sometimes. It has a slightly faster feel, good braking traction, enough bite to lay it over hard.

Excellent tire tread. But I recommend DD or DH casing instead of exo +, depending on the skill of trails you are planning to ride and how hard/advanced rider you are.

Exo is too light of a sidewall. On the front go minimum with the new exo+. Grip wise the Assegai or dhf front or good bit Assegai rear is draggy and makes a difference on the high speed jump lines. I’d go dhr2 rear in the dd casing with a liner.

I ran Exo for a year and ride on trails littered with basalt which is known to have very sharp edges, never had an issue with sidewall slicing.

Something XC like Maxxis ardent race or rekon race

I've tried the Ardent in a 2.3 width as a rear tire, and wasn't a fan. It was prone to breaking loose easily in corners with little warning.
