My go to tire has been Schwalbe Marathon Supremes 2.0 for 26" tourer, but beside the ridiculous cost I thought I could find something a little more nimble and less plushy for a heavy weight tourer.

So I stumbled on the Vittoria Randonneur Pro, 26 x 1.5, and have been very, very happy with the performance of those tires. https://www.vittoria.com/us/randonneur-pro-11771.html Very strong puncture resistant tires and I like the firmer ride, corner like cat paws. On a light bike I would say they might be overbuilt, but I love the way they feel loaded.
