Is the tyre fast? Then it is thin and will puncture more. Apparently only Conti GP 4S meet this magical actual toughness / fast criteria.

People conception of tyres and speed and toughtness is the same as "waterproof" jackets and breathe-ability: you just don't get to have both.

that's pretty bad. how many miles (and what type) are you putting on these to get that type of wear? I don't think I've ever worn a tyre through to that point - and I cycle a reasonable amount (c.4000mpa)

hope my gravel king SKs don't reach a similar fate

Ha! That was the second or third time I'd ridden them. These are the slick version of the gravel kings - and what UK gravel (aka old railway lines) do to them.
