There's two versions of these - one's a more expensive All Mountain. Assuming this is going to get all kinds of stuff chucked at it I guess that's the one to go for? Any reason to use Vittoria over the Spesh or vice versa?
No, and there's a reason for that. But you're not building an XC bike so also consider
Specialized Purgatory Grid 29x2.6
You won't go wrong with @pit 's recommendations either
