Two very different tyres recommended so far.

Marathon Pluses are hard compound, long lasting and offer about the best puncture protection there is.

The 'black chilli' compound of the Contis is soft, so they won't last long if used on the road, and may wear relatively quickly on hard packed cycle paths.

The OP needs to specify the proposed use.

I am after less rolling resistance and bigger volume of air.
I have a Michellin wildrnr,but it is too skinny.

Maxxis 2.35 Ardents. Very high volume, larger than the size suggests, and easy rolling. My favourite tyre on my standard mtb.

I like the Conti RaceKing. It is not a slick tyre but it is a fast tyre anyway!

Thanks for your replies,I have chosen and bought a Schwalbe Kojaks in 26 2.0. I like the complete slicks look and had okay reviews.
