depends on your rims to some extent. Some roads tyres just won't get on with 29er rims. What rims are they?

bigger the better then. Stans are quite tight so you could do with a slick 29er tyre rather than a wide road tyre, if you get me. I've tried 28mm Conti GP4Seasons on Stans Crest 29er rims and they were simply mental tight. Silly mental tight.

Depending upon your budget and tyre clearance...
Land Cruisers (roll well despite weight)
Kojaks
Big Apple
G-Ones
Big-Ones
Super Moto

I've read positive reports of the G-Ones on road regarding speed and durability.

I shaved my old racing ralphs 2.25 with an angle grinder.

God they flew. I still have them.
