Tires NITTO or Maxxis
I have 315/35/20 NT05 on the rear of my challenger 392 widebody, and it's been raining a ton in California lately. Surprisingly, they have been totally fine in the rain.
DHR II 2.4WT exists in double down and EXO casing at least in 27.5 -- I own both.
I have liked maxxis crossmark.
I am really wanting to try out the nitto Nt 05 I am in the process of replacing the stock tire for the first time but those tires would not last me a month if I was to daily them. so I am going with the Nitto invo seem like a good tire not being able to go with any I used when I was driving my beetle.
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.
Your trails sound pretty similar to what I ride. I have a set of Ardent 2.25s that I really like.
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.
Wrote my car off into an enbankment on NT05's in the rain while driving normally.
