Hi Rich, I have RTP on my Hunqapillar. Front is mounted on Atlas, Rear is mounted on Aeroheat. They measure ~50 - 52mm at 20 - 30 psi (f/r) for my 160# + bike+gear. It's mainly used as a Boston-area commuter on streets and dirt paths.
They are noticeably faster than Big Bens, which I liked a lot. Finding the right pressure was a problem initially. When pressure is low, the tires can be squirmy. I also had a few pinch flats in trying to get the right pressure. I've since used latex tubes. I like them for the speed and quality of ride. I think they are less prone to pinch flats, but that's anecdotal. I would recommend giving them a try, particularly if you ride mainly road or hard dirt.
