I use 559 X 29 175 (range to 180) Elk Pass tires with tubes and OS; 450 gram 700C X 60 Big Ones tubeless. Both these tires are paper thin and very light and supple (450 gr is damned light for such a huge tire!).
OS seems to work better than Stans. But either lets me use these paper tires in GOATHEADLAND where otherwise they'd be simply, and quite literally, impossible to use -- flats every 1 or 2 miles, literally, with Parigi Roubaix.
