I thought I'd revive this thread rather than start a new one.

I'm starting to think about the tyres on my fat bike. It's a leisure bike so never sees a trail, sand or snow. Thus, the tyres on it, the Schwalbe Jumbo Jims, are probably not ideal and they're going to wear out very quickly due to being the bike being ridden on a road surface exclusively.

When the time comes to replace them, does anyone have any recommendations for fat tyres (4.4 to 4.8 inch) that are designed more for road (US = pavement) riding?

I guess I need tyres that are less 'knobbly' and a little slicker? However, I haven't seen any for sale yet.
