Hi, I'm new to the forum!

Need some advises on Tubeless Tires for 29er.

Current wheel set is DT Swiss XR400rim + 240s Hub

1) Conti Mountain King 2 Racesport 29 x 2.2
2) Conti Rubber Queen 29 x 2.2
3) Schwable Hans Dampf trailstar 29x 2.35

Or can recommend me?

Mainly dry and hard condition, narrow trail in my country.

If it is dry, I would recommend Continental Race King 2.2. I have been running for a second season and it is simply brilliant IMHO - big volume, very fast, very grippy in the dry and surprisingly good if it is not very wet/muddy.

I am about to give the 29er Race King Protection a try. After riding maxxis Ikon 2.2 for 2 seasons, I find I dont trust the squared profile that much when leaning the bike. That's why I want to try the race king more rounded profile.

I have a set of race king racesport and raced on them in the most muddy race of the year, had no major problems.
