My KHS folder came with non-branded 47-406 (1.5" 20") tires, which I put liners in to help protect from flats, any typically pump up to 60psi... Haven't had any flats through 400+ miles, but a couple days ago I felt a familiar rhythmic bumping on the rear tire... sure enough, part of the tire is bulging out and a section of tread is at about a 15 degree angle to the rest of the tire. Disappointing, since I don't think I treat these tires very roughly at all... I've ordered a pair of Marathon Racers from Thor USA, we'll see if they last any longer! They supposedly go up to 85 psi max, and have a protection belt so I shouldn't have to keep the liners in...
