I'm looking to build up a second set of wheels to use my mountain bike as a commuter....I've given up on finding decent roadbikes in my size...plus this will give me wheelbuilding experience....

Well I'm going for the same rim/hub combo as I have now, so it's WTB Speed Disc hubs and rims. I wish I could find info on WTB's site, but it seems to be down.

The rim is very thin, I would say about 2/3rds the thickness of the rims my DB Outlook have on it. Any ideas on what kind of tires to get for this set? I'm looking pure road use here for this set.
