Currently use schwalbe citizen tyres.

I would suggest you don't consider replacing tyres until the tread on your existing tyres is well worn.
Better to spend time just practising taking a tyre off, looking for and fixing punctures and replacing tyres. Some tyres are undoubtedly more puncture proof than others, but most of us will have to deal with puntures at some stage, better to just gain confidence at dealing with them so that when you do fall victim to the puncture fairy you can just fix the problem and get on your way with minimal delay.:smile:

Last year, cycling to work, every day I was getting flats and it was only a mile! The cycle path was covered in all kinds of crap. So I went on wiggle and got couple of the gatorskin (I think that's what they're called) tyres with the kevlar lining. Anyways, I never had a flat again after that. They were brilliant.
