Most puncture-proof Gravelking?

I'm looking at the EXT TLC (I think) which is a sort of winter knob Gravel-king, but I want whichever is the most robust casing, it's going on a singlespeed CX bike for quick nighttime dashes and the rims aren't tubeless ready so I'll be sticking tubes in.

I can get EXT TLC or for an extra £2 per tyre I can get the EXT Plus TLC which I assume is more puncture-proof again?

Or is the EXT plenty?

I’ve had the EXT Plus TLC set up tubeless on my gravel bike since February, and after 8 months of flinty Hertfordshire/Chilterns riding there’s spots all over where the sealant has done it’s thing.

So for the sake of £2 I think I’d go for maximum puncture protection especially if you’re running tubes.

Thanks, sounds like it's worth it, I knew that the standard Gravel-king set quite a low bar for puncture-proofing so wanted to be safe.

Tan walls too, just what my bike has always needed 😎
