+1 Commute 24 miles each way from North Jersey to Brooklyn on BLACK 700x25 GP4000s. They have held up well, better than the Michelin PR3s. But I do not use them in wet or low light conditions. I have another set of wheels with 700x28 Gatorskins. The Gatorskins are somewhat slower climbing hills and accelerating. But, if your commute is flat they roll pretty well and seem to be bullet proof. Prices vary. If you can, wait until you see a sale in your price range.
