@Lukasz - well, I have the wheelset I'll be using - the above-mentioned Psimets. Just want tires, not a new wheelset for now
@JunkYardBike - those look nice, but damn, $64 a pop for training tires hurts.
@Chris - I checked those out. 500gm apiece - not the lightest. The Vittoria Randonneur Hypers have a similar mostly-smooth tread and clock in at 350gm, and I was leaning towards them, unless anyone has any experience between these 2. The Grand Bois do sound appealing, though...
I've run the hypers and been quite happy on my touring bike. Good flat protection and ride pretty decent.
