Continental's 4 Seasons and Specialized "armadilla" bike tires both have Kevlar-Aramid bands on road and side wall areas, and are both "tough". Armadillo's are slightly bulkier and heavier, so speed seekers generally go for the lighter tire. Tire diameter clearance: trading a 28C armadillo for a Panaracer 28C was tight in the main frame fork, so I had to get an available 23C armadillo (maybe a 25C could have worked) to give me rotation clearance.
