What is the best downhill tires for 26” wheels?

Want something wide as possible, and it has to fit in a 26” boxxer fork.

Magic Mary 2.6 is the widest I can find in a DH 26”. I have a maxxis dhf 2.5 on mine and seems more like a 2.3. Unless someone knows of a better source chain reaction has the best selection of 26” tires.

Mary is 60-559 (26x2.35).
DHR2 is 61-559 (26x2.4) and is pretty good as both front and rear tire.

I personally prefer the DHR2s as they are IMHO more predictable. Additionally, Mary's knobs have been easy to tear in drier conditions.

I have had good luck with DHR2 in front and/or rear.
