Availability is low these days. I've not ridden Vittoria Rallys, but the main benefit of tubs is the ride quality and rolling resistance - go for the nicest you can!
Second using tub tape, glue is more of a faff and also not easily available! Be sure to prep the rim bed too, clean it off with alcohol to make sure the glue/tape takes. Did not do this on a new pair of Light Bicycle rims and wasted a lot of time...
Maybe a bit counter-productive as you're already asking on this forum, but there are a few threads on Weight Weenies covering every possible question and permutation you could imagine.
