I don't buy the "prone to punctures" idea. Put a nail in any tire and you're going to end up with a flat. I had one recently after nearly six years. Just your basic trip downtown where every other street has construction going on. Sidewall failures are a different issue.
That said, after the puncture I replaced the OEMs with Michelins for the performance and handling, especially in wet weather. Much quieter and nicer ride. And yes, less range.
