Hard agree on the 90/10. And was very true for my last set of GP 4 seasons.
I’m an absolute bellend for running them for so long tbf. -
Kind of agree - with that in mind I used to use Schwalbe Lugano as they felt good, were cheap & particularly easy to get on/off the rim. I now use Schwalbe Durano Plus on fixed which ride pretty well, quite puncture resistant (tempting fate here & expect a visit from the puncture fairies soon) & only a bit of a struggle to get on!
NB. i use Pick-Up's on my cargo bikeNBB. Perhaps someone who knows more about this than I should start a thread on how easy/difficult some rims are for tyre change

Be Zen with it; accept that Punctures have their place in our lives. Don't fight them, accept we are a lotus blossom in the stream of life.
Although there are good punctures and bad ones. My best ever was 150 yards from home comming back from the Dunwich Dynamo. Worst; I lost my original Forum Cap, still smarts.
I once heard and agree with 90% of punctuers happen in the last 10% of a tires life. New tires are always a sound investment.
