I'm thinking of purchasing Schwalbe Marathon's for an upcoming winter tour on paved roads.
Should I be looking at Marathon Plus With Smartguard or should the normal Schwalbe Marathon's suffice? Are the XR's just overkill? I've heard that the Marathon Pluses are a bit sluggish... but offer more protection.

I've thought about this tyre some, and it seems to me, if i were to be going as light as i did last trip, I'd be seriously thinking about the Racer version.
