What kind of terrain ?
Hard pack trail centres ? If so continental verticals are great lightish trail tyres ! Single ply highroller a are pretty good aswell but don't roll like the verticals.
I've experimented with a few a I find the best for the places I ride are -
Trail bike - continental verticals all rear round
DH bike - maxxis highroller dual ply most of the time
Propper sh*tty weather I use swampthings

Yip the contis are perfect for that kind of thing very predictable and great for hard pack
