Amber wall, semi slick tyres.... does such a thing exist?

Michelin wildgripper sprints also came in amberwall and black. Quite a rare find these days though.

Swear by Charge Splashbacks. Great if you want retro look but for more road use. Have these on my daily rider.

I was just about to mention these.
Fairly fast rolling, might be tricky trying to find some now though?

How long did the production last of these? I remember it being short but at the time you could pick these up for £20 new. I found the sidewalls to be very thin though therefor they didnt last very long.
