any issues with flat tires due to potholes on 19” wheels?

[djole78]

Hey, just wondering if anybody has had issues with getting flats on their 19” wheels due to potholes? Used to have 19” wheels on an Infiniti a few years ago, and was getting lots of flats, so wondering if this would be an issue on a Stinger? Living in NJ doesn’t help given the super poor quality of the roads here...

No issues yet.
I will use the picture below as a example.
So in the picture below I have compared the tires on my Fiesta ST to the front tires on the g70. You will notice even though the g70 has a larger wheel that the tire has more sidewall.

What tire size did your infinity have? maybe do a comparison and see if the g70 has more or less sidewall.

Once. When my car was only a few months old. Wasn’t even a pothole either. A chunk of asphalt curb made its way out in the street and I ended up hitting it. Popped the tire and bent my front passenger strut. I’ve yet to have the wheels checked for roundness, but since I replaced the strut I haven’t had any issues
