    i use tioga factory Dh 2.30 or maxxis swamp things usually. theyre not bad all rounders.

    both are decent and not too spendy although neither rolls on tarmac or concrete particularly well.

    Tioga factory dh's are terrible.

    Highrollers would be a good choice. 60a all round if you want them to last longer, maybe with a 42a on the front for more grip. I'd stick with 2.35's for this time of year.

    For france you will want a larger tyre to soften the ride a bit, as you will be doing a lot of runs per day.
