Tufo Diamond D28 and D30 tires would be the choice I suppose. There is at least some availability with tan sidewalls. Yellow Jersey may be a good source. Pretty clunky tread pattern but I have yet to try my pair. Other than the tread pattern they seem well made. Beware the lesser model D28 and D30 which is only rated to 60 psi.
