I personally like the look of all black tires and have put about 1000 miles on Michelin Dynamic Sport 700x25c on my ‘84 Trek 670 and the rear is finally starting to pit/chip. Riding on not great roads in hilly Palos Verdes CA and had them up to about 47mph. I love how they feel and even being slicks have decent wet grip.
I have Vittorio zaffiro on an 82 SR that I just got in 700x28 and they seem good but not as fast as the Michelins.
