Hiya
I live in the countryside and i am planning on starting to commute in to work (9miles each way) from next week. The roads i will be using are small minor roads with big f off hedges (which i noticed this morning are being cut). :x
I am looking for a tyre with best puntcure resistance. im not bothered by weight or by rolling resistance, just want a tyre which will get me to work without having to stop to repair a p*******.
i have narrowed it down to these two, so was hoping to get some opinions on which i should pick.

I use Krylions. Had too many problems in the past when Gatorskins encountered glass - like a knife through butter.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.0 -
I've used both - unfortunately both got the occassional puncture. Using the michelin ones currently. Find they roll nicer and feel steadier while cornering.0

I have used both and found gatorskins to be harder wearing, but krylions to grip and roll better.0
