Which Tubs?

I just got myself a set of planet X wheels but know little about tubs and a lot of reviews I've read are pretty damning! Does anyone have any recommendations. I race up to middle distance at the moment and am stepping up to the big one next year so am looking for something pretty versatile but also fast. Up to now I've always used Continental clinchers which have been great.
Any advice gratefully received!

I have prob covered 1500m on my current set with little wear and no problems.
TIP: Some people will say pre stretch them before mounting them. DONT as you can rip the stitching which in turn puts minute holes in the tube inside itself. Then you have a slow puncture....
Make sure you get the 19mm ones:) great feel and supremely fast!
Ribble cycles are doing them for £45 at the mo....and if you buy 2 and use the code on the home page you should get another 8% of i think??
Normal price is around the 55-60 mark
Sorry Hussler - you've been great helping out with tips and we cheeky little monkeys have been ribbimg you - not fair.
Whilst I'm here the tubs are for my new Planet X 82/101 wheelset which they have just reduced by 30% to £399, yes £399!!!!
