I currently use Continental Sport Contact 700x32c tyres (I'm coming towards the end of my 3rd set), however they don't seem to make them any more? I want a fast rolling 28c commuter tyre for an all tarmac commute. I was going to splash the cash on some Grand Prix 4000S II (Folding) or maybe go for some slightly cheaper and more commuter friendly GatorSkin (Folding). If anyone has any thoughts or recommendations that would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, they need to be and all weather commuter tyres as I cycle every day regardless of the weather. Sounds like the gators are ruled out. I like the look of the Michelins.

Thanks all, got some Michelin pro4 28c from Wiggle. Annoyingly the box said 28c but after fitting the tyres I notice the tyres are 25c. Is it really going to matter that I squezed my conti 28-37 tour tubes under them?

Annoyingly I have noticed my front wheel bearings need doing while taking the wheels off, though this isn't a job for doing at work!
