Tan wall tires
I'd like to find some nice-riding retro-looking clinchers for a classic build, 700c x 25mm. What an I looking for?

Vittoria Corsa G+ is a nice bright tan, or Panracer GravelKing for a darker brown (also more budget friendly)

Does Avocet still make tires? The FasGrip Criterium was a good one.

I’ve always liked the look of the continental Grand Prix classic. I’ve never owned them but continental makes a great tire. Ive owned several sets of panracers and they look perfect for a vintage type of look. My problem with them is durability but that’s probably just my luck

I am a fan of the Velofex Master/Corsa. No real problems with flats and it’s easy bike upgrade. They ride fantastically.

But agree, I've had no problems with flats on these. I only recall one flat and that was because I was riding through the winter with them.. |

Their tires stretch out pretty quickly. Second or third installation is usually a dawdle. I will note that I have always had terrible luck with punctures on veloflex tires - but only in the rain. Brilliant ride quality and surprisingly long-lasting. |

i was using them during race season / commuting in NYC, so my sample size is skewed towards crappy roads.

Corsa g+
Continental GP classic Gp4000s2 tan wall (only 23c though) Those are the only tires I’d buy personally |

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Compass Chinook Pass tires, although I think the smallest they come in is 28cs. Also Challenge Strada Pros or Paris Roubaix tires.
Right now I have Pasela Panaracer Loctites which I am very happy with for street riding. I plan to upgrade to Corsa G+ tires next. |

Panaracer Race C Evo
Anyone try these yet? The OP asked about 25mm but these are only a mm larger, so maybe they would work. Been considering a pair myself, so any feedback would be great.

Specialized Turbo Cotton - my personal favorite tire but very expensive
Challenge Strada or Paris Roubaix - nice tires with excellent puncture resistance, hard to fit first time though. I use the Gravel version on my Gravel bike, fast enough on road and grippy enough off road Vittoria Corsa G+ - Almost as nice as Turbo Cotton and much cheaper, this is my go to training tire on my road bike |
