good city tires?

Hey, so i live in boston and i know flat tires come with the territory of city riding but are there any tires out there with a slimewall or something that prevents flats?

+1. Switched these onto my roadie a year ago and haven't had a problem yet. A little pricy but it's almost assured you wont have to deal with flats ever again using reasonable caution

Great Tire, also reflective if that would help you.

Woah!
That reflective material on the Michelins is super smart...
I buy Specialized Armadillo's for riding in NYC...
Kinda hard ride compared to cheap Kenda's, but good traction and no flats!
(fingers crossed)

Best, Jake
