On my Genesis Day One I'm running Conti Speed Kings at 700c X 35 but I want to change them to slicker tyres to reduce rolling resistance.

My questions is do I have to find slicks that are 35 or can I go down in size as long as I keep the size to 700c?

Also, is there any difference between wired and folding? If I order over the net I thought folding tyres may be easier than wired but don't want to waste money on the wrong thing.

Cheers

Wired tyres are (usually) lower cost, but heavier. No difference as far as sizing is concerned AFAIK.
