Which do you think is better for our terrible roads (puncture resistance) tubs or 700cc ?

tubes, you'd be stupid not to run clichers. What are you going to bring with you if you get a puncture while riding? A spare wheel, or a tube?
A spare tub perhaps! The question was which is the most puncture resistant?

Cheers for the replies, I have been riding MT bikes for the last few years but previous to that when I was racing it was tubs ! So I will get a new set of wheels for my 80's Colnago that I am going to use for training.
Any recommendations for puncture resistant tyres and strong wheels for the back roads that I will be doing the miles on?
