Vittoria mezcal vs maxxis rekon

I have Maxxis Rekon Race 2.4s on my fs xc bike, and Vittoria Mezcal Race 2.4s on a hardtail that I use for chunky gravel. I may be entirely wrong but I feel like I have insufficient grip - especially downhill - on my XC bike and too much rolling resistance on the gravel bike . So I was thinking of switching the tires. But I would like to hear opinions. Thanks in advance.

Nextdoor is just an echo chamber of hatred for bikes and bike lanes. (And pedestrian crossings!) It serves to embolden fringe parts of the community and creates a danger. Some angry old folks in my community now drive around with their phones in their hands trying to document the sins of cyclists, and post their pics. Nevermind that it is illegal to touch your phone while driving in my state, and that these people - by their own admission - struggle to drive in the first place.
