I've got a set of the Paris Roubaix... They're a bit meh for the money.

Look great but puncture quite easily. And maybe my rims are too wide but the tyre profile was really flat and rock hard (basically unrideable) at anything over 60psi.

Thanks, I think they may be ok for intended purpose. I expect them to puncture easily given they're a lightweight cotton tyre. That is hopefully negated somewhat by being set up tubeless.
It's for a dry weather only, summer bike.
Cost isn't too much of an issue as I can get them discounted

Sounds like they'll suit your needs then. Not sure if you've fitted challenge tyres before but they're not fun. I had some success using a zip tie to hold on the bead in one section while using a tyre lever.
