On the Trek DS 8.5, the 700x47mm tires are the Continental Tour Ride. A bit pudgy to fit inside of full-length fenders, if you're going to be running those, but otherwise a pretty decent tire. Heavier, but stellar for avoiding punctures, for cruising along at a good clip, and with decent enough tread for inclement weather. If you don't might the weight, I'd highly recommend them. They've got a variety of sizes, 700x42mm also, which would fit with full-length fenders (without rubbing).
