Continental Gatorskin at the front for a good compromise between puncture resistance and rolling resistance but whose cost to skid durability ratio is bit a too high to run in the rear. Soma Everwear in the rear for the generous 5mm thick thread to last a long long time riding brakeless and resist punctures via brute force; get a smaller diameter size and inflate to a higher PSI if rolling resistance is important to you.
