Cheap tyres (and some expensive ones) will offer pretty much no resistance to glass, flint and so on.
By the time the pointy thing has got through the tyre I think the brand inner tube will not make a huge difference, although I imagine it might play a small part.
I personally really rate Maxxis refuse, that said at the moment I have a Gatorskin on the back and a four seasons on the front which are doing very well.
