My favorate was the Schwinn Westwind or Typhoon Cord. It had a brick bond pattern that was smooth rolling and had enough of a pattern that it would grip in dirt or light mud. They also had a look that was classic. Many of their balloon and middleweight bicycles got these tires. Of course these aren't made by Schwinn anymore.
There are other brands that are making brick pattern tires. To me, that is essential for a Schwinn Cruiser. Duro seen to have them in a variety of colors and sizes. I think Schwalbe has a brick pattern tire.
As you can see from the picture above, I need to start looking for replacement tires for my Schwinn Heavy Duti.
