My new rig finally came, all I need to decide on is tires. I ride mostly dirt, but some street. I'm able to get Holy Rollers from my local shop for $30 a piece, but I haven't really looked anywhere else. I ride a good variety of conditions, so I'm thinking the Holy Rollers may be too urban biased. Would I be better off with Larsen TTs or DMR Moto Diggers?
What tires?

Motos are solid. I'm rockin em.
Or, check out the new Atomlab 3... it's like the comp III... now that's old school.

a 26" comp III would be sick as hell

Larsen TTs are excellent rear tires for hardtails that see street and dirt. Only trouble is the center knobs wear out quickly if you ride mostly street. In that case, I would go holy-roller.
I wouldn't use a larsen for a front tire... no side knobs. I've always used "bling blings" which have big honkin' side knobs and small center knobs.
If by "mostly dirt" you mean just dirt jumps, then the holy rollers will be great. I rock them for Dj's, pump tracks, and urban, and they're excellent. However for more 4x/DS stuff, I would look elsewhere. They are great for fast rolling dj's and bermed out stuff, but for pure traction and cornering hold, they aren't the greatest.
Kenda Small Block 8...
I'ld go with a holy roller, k-rad or such in the rear and a larson TT, small block 8, mutano rapters, ect. FT
