Tires Maxxis or Sailun
Sailun Ice Blazer WSL2's Their one of the top chinese tire brands. Have had them for 3 seasons driving the fraser-cariboo and they have been awesome.
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.
My 4runner came with new Sailun Terramax HLT tires. Went 4 wheeling with them twice so far and a couple 1000+ mile road trips... so far so good. They're quiet on road and didn't get me stuck in the desert off road.
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.
I just put some 2.25" Maxxis Ardent TR EXOs on my Trek 29er and they have been awesome so far. Tons of grip compared to the bontragers I had (cheaper ones that came with my bike).
Maxxis all the way. Seem to be the best combo of grip, price, durability, and weight.
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.
Sailuns are cheap Chinese crap.
