My main commuter bikes both have Marathon Plus tires now. Before this investment, I was getting on average 1-2 flats per month. Huge difference!

I use marathon supremes(with puncture resistant tubes), they're amazing.
Heavy and a pain to mount and no good off road...but for commuting on road? Perfect.
