Default That won't Pop or Bubble

Every car that i have driven and for all the type of tires that i have had, i have always come across bubbles and flat tires. Bottom line sick and tired of changing them shits...I'm always in queens, bronx and manhattan, and for those of you who live here, or have been here know what i'm talking about. So i need to know what tire(s) are good for withstanding all the pot holes and retarted streets, but also all season, because shit, we see it all here in NY. But if your goin to list summer tires than i would have to get snow tires too. I'm looking for 205 45 16, for my summers, and snow tires for my stock swirlies
Thanks for any help

the problem is the low profile tires. i run 205 50 15, and i just killed a tire last week. i'm sure certain tires may be stronger than others (though i don't know what), but they all can only handle so much, and at that profile, well, it's even worse.

i'll agree with you that it's annoying. :hs:

i got a set of fuzion zri 205/55-wr15's on my bimmer that have 2 full autocross seasons on them plus 20k miles of travel. pretty sticky, dont wear real fast, and damn cheap. to the tune of about 68 dollars a tire. theyre a summer tire though, so depending on your location you might need a set of some winters.
