Best tire options for Ripcurrent S to reduce flats?

[330rcs]

I’ve had 2 flats in about 600 miles. First one happened around when I first got it probably under 100 miles. Had slime put in it and lasted until now. Is there anything I can do to reduce my flats? Tubeless isn’t possible on this ebike? I have no experience with tubeless. I was considering to get a tire liner just heard about them. Should I upgrade the tires? Kenda Juggernaut Pro?

Any advice would be appreciated. I’d rather spend more to upgrade and reduce my chances of having a flat 10 miles out and being stranded. I have no idea how a patch kit works or if I could remove a tube roadside or have to keep an air pump on me all the time. I’m going to sign up for AAA haha.

IF you have a Walmart in your area , the Bike section Might have the Slime Tire Liners, which will be a barrier between your inner tube and the interior of the tire. They're not that much added weight .

Does the liner have to be fat tire size? The Ripcurrent has a 4.0

Come to think of it, I think they're slightly more than 2" wide but I'm not certain ! I'm definitely looking Closer next time I hit Walmart again. ?

Maybe Slime's website will indicate the Width of those liners . ?

Is the Ripcurrent tubeless ready?
