I suspect these are based on the same casing size as the 1-1/4 Pasela, which measures huge compared to other 1-1/4" tires.
The World Tour is of course similarly huge (though is heavy, sluggish and stiff at least compared to most skin-side tires).
I get good tread mileage from Panaracer tires of this type, Pasela et al.
