Help wanted, which one to choose from these road tires

SteelNipple

Retro Newbie
Hi, 15 years of daily cycling, but I have only ever used really cheap tires and now getting into road biking I've been thinking of buying some slightly better ones for "training" on a 80s road bike. The roads here can be in somewhat bad condition, but I have no idea how puncture-resistant any of these tires would be in practice.
I have read some threads here about road tires and looked at reviews and comparisons, but can't decide and I would like to know if someone here has any experience with more than one of these tires.

The tires I'm considering are
Veloflex Corsa Evo
Vittoria Rubino Pro
Panaracer Race C Evo
Panaracer GravelKing Slick
Schwalbe Pro One
Thanks.
 
The higher the TPI, the better the puncture protection. I only have experience of the Vittori
a tyres, I have used them a few times and think they are good value for money. I have convinced myself that they have good road holding qualities. You can sometimes pick them up as a deal package. There is a possible downside to them, they seem to crack along the circumference but I don't think i've encountered a puncture because of this. I don't know if this is caused by the graphene.
At least you have to take out a second mortgage to try them 😀.
