Commuting on city streets in Cedar Rapids tore the hell out of my GB Lierres. I finally took them off after 1500 miles and many flats, mostly from glass shard punctures. I had three separate "X" holes through the tread. But, the ride of supple tires is so magical that I keep trying. I put new Pari-Motos on my Riv, and flatted the rear within the first 50 miles. :( I'm going to try them tubeless (on tubeless-ready PL23 rims) to deal with the punctures.
