City Slicks for MTB

I'm planning on converting my mountain bike into a most-of-the-time city bike by slapping a couple of high pressure 26x1 slick tires. I wanted some advice on what brand of tires to buy. Do I go with the steel bead or the kevlar? Is one more puncture resistant thatn the other. I know the kevlar is lighter, but I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes in efficiency and ride quality. The tires I'm currently leaning towards are the Ritchey Tom Slicks, 26x1.

One more thing. Will there be any compatibility issues with the rims? I have bontrager corvairs.
