I'm racing in a stage race in Fiji in November and looking for some lightweight fast rolling tires for loose dirt roads around Fiji...

So far options are:

Michelin XCR dry2

Or

Michelin Comp 15 Semi-slick

or

Continental Supersonic

or

Maxxis 490

Anyone used any of these or know a good dirt road racing tyre
