Hi all,
I recently bought a Commencal Meta 55 Carbon frame and I need some advice on what tires I should go for. I'm looking for some light ones that will handle the autumn (read mud and wet).
Maxxis High Roller 2.10 XC perhaps?

No complaints with my Nevegal 2.35s (stick-e on the front) They cope with all conditions well.0

If you want something fairly light I'd have a look at the Schwalbes, 2.25 Nics/Ralphs. I'd be cautious about decking out the Meta with the lightest skinniest bits you can find, it's not a hugely light frame (even the carbon) and you'll lose the fantastic suspension action.
My 2 are both kitted with 2.4" Nobby Nics on the front and 2.25" Maxxis Ardents on the back at the mo, both on fairly wide rims. It'll depend a lot on what sort of riding you do. High Rollers are a safe bet, the 2.1" is massively smaller than the 2.35" though.0
