Some just cut easier and they get stuff embedded in them that will eventually cause a flat.
For me, most all my flats are pinch flats. Im not too brght, so every once and a while I try to put something smaller than 28's on and my big posterior flats em. I have had good luck with my 28 Gator skins, but my 25's I constantly flatted. For me, tire size is a better flat protector than the acual tire.
