>>1170646You need a 26" tyre with a smooth to slightly knobby texture, depending on the type of terrain you ride. The texture of the tyre effects speed more than the width. Puncture resistance is a must on a commuter. I prefer to have as big of a tyre as I can get in a frame because I enjoy being comfortable when getting on light gravel/shit roads while commuting.
There are many good options so I won't name them all but check out Maxxis, Continental and Schwalbe tyres that are fat, smoothish, puncture resistant and fit your budget.
Pic related, Maxxis Hookworms. Pretty heavy compared to others but I really love em.
