I've used maxxis hookworms a couple of years ago, I still have them in my closet and will ride them occasionally just for fun... They are big and heavy, no problem if you have a short commute. No puncture protection belt but the rubber and tread is very thick. Make sure your frame has enough clearance because they are big tires.
With those tires you never have to worry about potholes, cracks in the pavement or sewer grates, they will ride over almost anything. Traction is very good and if you run them at a little lower pressure they stick to pavement like glue.
