Yup, they are conti GP4000ii tires with yellow sidewall. Unfortunately, you will have a hell of a time finding them because Conti discontinued their colored sidewall GP4000ii tire due to their green color fading. It sucks because it is such a great tire and the yellow adds a nice touch for those who are looking for a yellow/gumwall.
I've since switched to the vittoria Corsa G+ and have been very happy. very smooth and fast ride. Unfortunately, even though they have been very good with puncture resistance, I know I wont get as many miles out of these as I did with my conti's.

If you want 700x25 gumwall conti's, you'll need to opt for the classic version:

I think 25 is the new 23. That said, if I could fit 28s on my road bike, I'd probably try it considering the roads in Phoenix.

I've flipped the stem and ordered my favorite Ritchey handlebars. Also, I've ordered a black and white Fabric seat rather than the white and black (have another bike that could use the white and black version).

I've only had 2 rides but can tell you they are really nice. The rims are just a bit heavier than the 303s I have on my road bike. The tires are real comfortable.
