My touring bike has had Panaracer Paselas for many years. When one good 
friend died, I inherited a Pasela with some extra flat protection - 
maybe called "Tourguard" or something? (I forget, and I'm not home to 
check.) But I don't think I've mounted that one yet.

I get few flats, which I credit mostly to riding away from the road 
edge. Car tires sweep the road clean where they touch the pavement.
