There was the Vittoria Open Corsa, which was available in black tread and natural (amber) sidewalls, but unfortunately not made anymore, replaced by the Evo version (ugly). I'm not sure if Veloflex still make tyres with black tread and natural sidewalls, but they definitely did. Those tyres are the nearest thing to tubs in clincher form, in fact the casing and tread are the same as their tubs but with beads instead of being sewn up.
