I've used both Veloflex Record and Contential Supersonic, actually have one of each on the bike at the moment. There's little difference between the two, so if there's a current price difference go for the cheaper.

I run a 20mm on the front and a 23mm on the rear

Which did you purchase?
I ride several bicycles, but not at once.
