Tough road tires

[neon]

I thinking of getting some 'extra tough' road tires for the winter (seeing it started raining again ), I thinking Conti 4 season, Speci gator skins or the like. Maybe 25mm for a little extra meat on rim for night riding. Any recommendations.

Sorry, Specialized make Armadillos. Too many animal names.

I noticed that Ribble in the UK has got Vittoria Rubino Pro foldings
in 25 mm as well as 23. These are tough tires that many people swear
by and others find a bit wooden - I've been using them for several
years happily, for training and C grade racing. Ribble has got 10% off
everything this weekend - I'll try to remember to post the coupon
number tomorrow.

I've been on Mich. Krylion's for a while now, and they've been fantastic. No flat's yet, no big cuts, and roll really well.
