the maxxis larsen tt tires catch my eye because they are light and look like they roll fast and grip well, I love natural terrain and big hits as well as djs and dh, what do you think?

Don't even look at these tires! I have 1.9 in my XC bike and the cant handle my riding. They are thick as a paper. Its really easy to have a flat tire or snake. I repair them average once a week! To the grip...they love compressed soil and thats all. In mud, sand and rock theay are similar to slick's. But the worst is wet tarmac. I had horrible crash while braking. They also wear very fast. I can only recommend them for marathons to use in 2-3 races. You need dh tires and tubes. Don't make the same stupid choice as me!

I run Larsen tts

2.3 60A upfront and 2.0 on back. there designed as a summer tyre so dont expect them to perform in loose and muddy conditions.

iv never had a flat in them in 6 months

These tyres are great in the dry, I doubt it in the wet, I haven't tried that out yet, not sure I want to lol , but they roll very fast compared to my Moto Diggers
