I bought pink Schwalbe Stelvio tires (I bought them from biketiresdirect.com because they had the best price. And I have to put in a plug for the service at biketiresdirect. I placed a different order online, for a threaded CO2 pump and a bunch of non-threaded cartridges, and they called me the day I placed the order, before they shipped, to make sure this wasn't a mistake. It wasn't actually, I have a pump for each seatbag and one that takes unthreaded -- but I was impressed that they caught this).
Anyway, I really like the tires. I bought them just for the color, which matches my Fizik tape/saddle very well, but they turned out to be much better tires than the ones that came on my bike. I had no idea tires could be so plush and grippy! (Granted my experience isn't very wide...).
Here's a picture of the tires on my bike (and a not-so-great picture of me looking beat after a very windy ride that bf made me lead 75% of the way):
And maybe a better picture of the tires:
