I find you can't really separate tires from where you ride.
Fact of the matter IMO is the roads where I live are not the same as they were 20 years ago. They have gotten dramatically worse.
Stuff gets repaved but it seems slow and the specific routes I like to ride due to avoiding car traffic sure seem to have gotten a lot worse, lots of places you need to stop pedaling, level the pedals, and almost get into "MTB attack position" if you don't have big tires.
Not potholes, 25-50' x 10' sections where the entire road is a minefield of 100 potholes that go down to different layers of the road and it feels a little sketchy to ride all the way out to the double yellow to go around it.
