I will give an AAAA+++ with the Ardents either in the rear or both wheels (front and back). They are solid grip like the Nevegals in all avenues of terrain, however roll much faster and are a bit lighter. I like the Crossmarks as well, no experience with the Larsons though.
Flying with the Minion and High Rollers is a bit much in my opinion, as they are more aggressive DH tires and are much heavier for XC.
Anyways, good luck and have fun! 😀
