Tire feedback; so I have been shopping around lately and remembering you were planning on the XC in D-ville. Since it's mostly uphill the WTB wolverine is just about perfect for weight, traction and climbing I just can't seem to hear enough good things. The DH treads I reccomended earlier stick like paint but are overkill for XC. Personally I went to slightly lower volume for our dusty local conditions but the tread height on the Exi-wolfs makes up for the difference and the rolling is slightly faster.
