1) Maintain and inspect your tires REGULARLY, can't stress this enough!!!
2) Purchase a "GOOD" ANALOG tire gauge and keep it in your trunk!
3) Purchase a "GOOD" tire plug kit and keep it in your trunk!
4) Watch the road, avoid potholes, debris and curbs.
Ahh, good ideas, especially the tire gauge idea. I also check my tires regularly with a tire gauge. The other day, my low tire monitor came on. Found the right rear tire just a tad below spec. Inflated it correctly, indicator went out as it should.
