Winter tubeless tyres?

I'm currently running a pair of Schwalbe Pro-Ones and find them a bit slippery on wet roads (and they're not new, so I have run them in).

With winter around the corner, I'm looking to get some 28mm tubeless tyres that are more confidence inspiring. Any recommendations?

@Miller - I'd be able to fit them, but no-one's got them. I did see one for sale on EBay at around £50, but it was just the one.

I have had a pair of Hutch Sector 28s on the go for a couple of years. They're very hard-wearing and very tough and give a good ride while not being the ultimate fastest tyre. A good choice for winter if you can fit them.

I have managed to fit in 30mm tyres previously, but it's so tight that any road grit sticking to the tyre would end up carving into the carbon-fibre frame, so I've decided it's not worth the risk (officially the frame only supports up to 28mm).

I did spot the Hutchison Sector tyres, but they're out of stock at Wiggle and CRC and I haven't looked further afield yet.

The Schwalbe G-one speed tyres (previously called S-one) are great if you can fit them - 30mm nominal width but come up 32mm on my rims.

For 28mm, the Hutchinson Sector tyres are a good option. They are a little bit slippy straight out of the pack, but once they have worn in a tiny bit they offer great grip and are more hard wearing than the schwalbe pro-one's.

If you can squeeze 30mm in,  G-One Speeds / S-Ones are as sticky as.  Hard to find at a decent price though.
