For riding the Great Divide, can anyone say about how many miles I can expect to get on a set of WTB Exiwolf tires 2.3"?

Guess I will need to send a extra pair to a PO stop somewhere on the trail for change out, but wondering where to send them.   Thanks!

It is just not possible to say.  Depends on luck, weight supported, and tire inflation.  If I were you, I'd plan on starting with new tires and one new spare.  I'd also expect my companions to take a new spare each so you can keep each other supplied if any of your luck is very bad.....

when adventuring in remote areas, an ideal situation is everyone has the
same size tire and tube.
