I put a set of the brownish Schwalbe Delta Cruisers RBW sells on my green Hillborne today. They certainly feel better than the Kendas I'd been using, even though they are narrower. Not all cush is the same, I guess. The 700x38 Kendas were more cushy but were also a little squirmy even at 70psi

They were called Kenda Rain V-Cut tires. I think they had a model number but I've forgotten it. I've only see the particular ones I used on Amazon. Maybe Niagara Cycle Works had them at one time, simply called Kenda Hybrid Tire. Though I note that what I see there now is a blackwall 700x35
