That's a pretty aggressive racing tire. I've ridden potholed-city streets on those, but I don't think I would any more, given a choice. I like to ride very-light-weight, narrow tires on weekend rides. On normal streets, I prefer 28mm or more. I'm currently using 32mm Paselas on my SUV. They don't feel heavy at all, and they're nice and cushy.
