City Jets have profile, the OP mentions that he wants full bald.
Not so sure about Hanks either. I own a set of 2.2" Hanks, and whilst being as grippy as superglue, they do have a lot of rolling resistance no matter how many PSI I run them at. Not so much a problem if you don't plan to ride a lot at high speed.
Something about the first post tells me that this bike will be a high-speed tourer rather than an urban assault vehicle, so you'll be looking for slightly harder compounds.
