I'd look at one with 197mm TA to be futureproof and be able to get 5" tires. The higher BD ones have that, like my Sturgis. It also came with tubeless rims, Maxxis tires, 1x, hydraulic discs. Paid for itself compared to buying a bullseye and having to upgrade all that.
And yes, tire quality matters a lot.... ask me about the cheap studded Vee tires I once used......
