As Sal mentioned in his posting, there is no rim tape on his Ksyrium Elite wheels. Since he has had the wheels for a few years and I have only had mine since Aug '19, no tape may still be the case. If not, I will deal with it and use DT Swiss tape if the existing tape needs replacement.
As for other tires he mentions (e.g. Panaracer, Pirelli Cinturato, Schwalbe, Veloflex or Tufo), rather than muddy the waters and enter it unchartered, I will stick with the Yksions since I had good luck with them, but will go up to 28mm from the 25mm that I currently run.
