Default Panaracer tires on sale at Nashbar

I'm wondering about the Panaracer tires on sale at Nashbar for $15 and $10 --
the Stradius Elite (two versions), and Category Elite. Has anyone used these?
Feedback?

Matt O.

I've ridden various Stadius models and the Category Elite. The
Category Elite runs narrow (23-622 measures only about 21.5mm) and
wears really fast.

I currently am riding a foldable Stradius model - I don't remember if
it's Pro or Elite - I think it's Pro. But it's a full 23mm wide and is
wearing much better. I like them a lot.

I've gotten the category elite on EBay last year and they were
amazingly sturdy tires. Much more resistant to small punctures and
cuts from small road debris than the soft Michelins I was using, only
used them as rear tires though.

I use Panaracer Pasela (touring) tires and have nothing but praise for
them. In particular I could mount them on the rims with my hands- very
refreshing to not have a flat tube from a mounting wrench about 20% of
the time. The tires themselves seem fine- they hold air and such. The
sidewalls are durable and reliable. I wish they didn't have any tread
on them but that's tough to find.
