Tough but colourful tyres

There are plenty of choices when it comes to puncture-resistant tyres and there are plenty of choices when it comes to coloured tyres, but it seems that never the twain shall meet.

Does anyone know of any tough tyres that come in a range of colours? I'm specifically after white, dark green or neon yellow.

    the Halo Twin Rails? puncture resistant but not as puncture proof like some of the schwalbes.

    The 2010 Rubino Pro's come in those colours and seem pretty puncture resistant.

    just a warning, not sure of the grip of the Twin rails on the front wheel.

    I run schwalbe stelvio's in balck and green. Had them for nearly a year now. Rode in all weathers and still not had a p******e

    Not quite there, but how about Michelin Krylion Carbons in red or yellow?

    Stelvio Durano Plus is another choice although far more expensive. They roll better than the Rubino Pros though.

    Vredestein Fortezza Tricomp is yet another option, again a bit more expensive but still a damn fine tyre.

    I will avoid the new Krylions, the latest batches have been a bit iffy.

    Stelvios for me too (pink of course) zero p-problems - although has this post just signed my p-fairy warrant?
