Tube size question

[jc0510]

Got a question for the group, I normally by 700x19x26 inter-tubes but with 6 flats in the past week, looking at less expensive on line but size is 700x18x23, will those work? Fuji Road bike. Thanks

What width are the tyres?
Sounds like you might need new tyres or have an issue with your rims or tyres pressures if you’ve had 6 flats in a week (I barely have 6 in a year on different bikes)

Have you tried patching the tubes or were they catastrophic failures?
