The cotton ball test. Wipe a cotton ball on the inside of the tire. If something is gonna puncture your tube, the cotton will stick to it and pull the cotton.

Also check Valve stem, if your loosing air for no apparent reason

I use heavy duty tubes and they do last longer. I ride the gutter alot so I need them. Kinda gets expensive after a while so I do patch them when possible lol

i have seen some people put pipe isolation in the tyre so theres more material between the tube
