Ah. Best of both worlds are Schwalbe Marathon in 25!
As the German I am I once bought them for my fixed gear.
It was devastating. From pinching 5 (?) tubes because they are basically more tire than space for air.
Riding them was the worst ever.
I think someone described them as akin to having a bag of walnuts on your rims. Which is pretty accurate.
Sold them one week later.
If you really hate someone, give them a bike with Schwalbe Marathon unplattbar in 25.
