I'm putting new tires on my road bike. Will be for running errands and commuting to the bus stop mostly. But I will do some group rides as well when spring comes. So what are your experiences with 23c vs. 25c. I have used 23c only for awhile now and I am wondering if the 25c will really be any different in terms of comfort and safety - from road debris - I do not want to change a flat on my way to work.
The largest tire my bike will take is a 25c

The largest tire my bike will take is a 25cUse a 25...no payback, may be more reliable, bigger tire plus may be more comfy, bigger tire, more distance rim to tire outside, less pressure required.
