low profile tyre?

I have just purchased a 1990 531 frame that had been a custom
build for someone else but fits me perfectly
My problem ?--clearance at the rear brake bridge is incredibly tight--the only tyre( 23) that I can get to fit is a conti supersonic---wore out after 700k
I guess the frame was made for singles or 19 , 20, width tyre
?anybody know of a more robust tyre with low profile--pref 23
