The tires were selected for off road & poor quality pavement riding. These are dry condition tires for off road. So far the tires ride really well, grip well and have way more tread than a road tire. They should work well on wet pavement, but not off road.

I haven't ridden them enough to vouch for puncture resistance. If you're worried about that you can add a thorn strip on the outside of your tube. So far I love the tires.
