1150 GS Tires

I am starting my first RTW trip in May so for the trip I bought a 2004 1150GS. For the majority of the trip the stock street tires will be be fine. My concern is once I hit Africa that the nobby tires on the BMW Adventure would be more practical. Has anyone put nobby tires on the 1150GS and if so any recomondations?
Thanks
Josh

Plenty of people use Continental TKC80's. Bearable on road & reasonable off road.
