I never quite sure what to think of those. They look nice. But what kind of quality should I expect? Conti GP4000s style of more like Vittoria Zafiro?

I used them for years. Really puncture proof and grippy but not too fast in my experience

I have a set in 700C that I've never used, so I can't tell you. They look... okay, definitely more Zaffiro than GP 4000. They certainly don't feel as nice in hand as a tire I would normally use, but they were intended for a budget fixed build that I never ended up doing.

I did buy some in 28 mm 650C with black sidewalls for my Softride though, so whenever that's finished I'll be able to give you some feedback.
