My advice would be to keep an eye out for shop clearance deals or lightly used secondhand tubs. Tubulars are out of fashion, so both come up reasonably often.
- Paves are a good tyre, excellent grip, but won’t last as long as others. Corsa Control is the new version
- Conti Sprinter Gatorskin were the super tough, super durable choice but don’t roll as nice (there has to be a trade off somewhere)
- Conti Competition are a bit more of an all rounder if you can find them in your price range
- I’ve also had extra PPS versions of Challenge Strada and some Vitoria Course SC, which were both fine. Corsa G is the new version of the latter
- Conti Giro of the budget tubs seemed to be a better choice than Rally’s, but if you’re putting in the effort to go tubular then you might as well go for a decent tyre (I’ll be clearing out my Giros before long!)

I really liked WTB cross boss, got a pair for cheap if you want to have a go.
