I commute on tubs, and agree with the above. Conti Sprinter or Sprinter Gatorksins are probably the only general riding or commuter tub out there. Others are cheap and roll horribly (Vittoria Rally, Conti Giro), while race tubs aren't very durable, cut up easily on glass and/or have trouble in the wet (Vittoria again).
I keep a pre-glued spare and can of sealant with me, and not run in to any problems over the past eight months I can't handle yet
