Maxxis recoomends the High Roller for more-abusive situations, even in the XC-width end of the line (they make 2.35 and 2.5 versions for freeride/DH). Weight is 480g. Don't get the eXception version if you won't be racing, though, as the compound will wear quicker. The High Roller is a good mix of low center knobs for less rolling resistance combined with larger outer lugs for soft/loose + cornering, along with a tough casing.
