Riding 1200 miles I've had four punctures with my Panaracers. I'm not sure you can read anything into that though. I've ridden mostly on tarmac with some compacted gravel tracks thrown in. I've probably fallen victim to thorns on the road piercing the tyre's sidewalls. I guess its, in part, the sidewalls that help make the tyres so comfortable and I've always found them 'grippy' in the wet. They are not the cheapest around as a quick search would show, but as a good all rounder they are fine. Just avoid thorns, not the bikes though, just the things that stick in your tyre walls and mess up your ride!
