Dave - I'm quite the fan of 2.3 tyres for the following reasons:
1) You can get from edge to edge quicker.
2) You can run a heavier casing with the same overall weight as a 2.5.
3) They roll faster than 2.5s as there's less rubber on the ground.
4) You don't get the big gaps between centre and side knobs - DHF i'm look right at you with your huge "drift" channel.
Downsides - less braking grip. Less grip on slippery tech gnar.
