Apparently, latex tubes will reduce rolling resistance. Aside from that, they're all about the same in speed, but thicker ones are harder to puncture and the really really cheap ones get leaks easily in my experience. I am not too particular, and happily run Michelin, Specialized, Continental, and Performance brand tubes.
