I've heard jack brown tires are great even in **** conditions, my personal preference is the the specialized nimbus with flak jacket I've been using for almost a year now and haven't gotten a single flat and I live in Chicago so those are really worth it. But if really need something cheap performance has these forte tires on sale for 12 bucks a pop they're pretty good alone but if happen to stumble apon a patch of nails you could always get those tire strips that are puncture proof.
