In a previous garage I used Armstrong industrial floor tiles in a black/white checkered pattern, about 1/4" thick...not the peel-and-stick variety. It required floating the floor and sealing it (done professionally...I wasn't around to watch the progress), and wasn't cheap...but they looked new seven years later with very little maintenance and a late model (read: heavy) Land Cruiser parked on them for a couple years.

Why don't you do what my friend did and marble tile your garage floor. Sure it ain't cheap, but it looks real nice 
This guys garage is the finest I have ever seen and it's right here in NJ.

I've done two garages, and have a new house that will be ready soon (floor trial #3).
Garage #1: Used the cheapest stuff I could find at Home Depot.
Results: Good. It never lifted, was easy to clean, but was dull grey. I want something more shiny.
READ MY OLD POST HERE - BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES INCLUDED.
Garage #2: I used the Behr garage floor paint
Results: IT SUCKS. I did all the prep work - carefully - and it lifts, etc. I don't recommend this.
Garage #3 (end of this year): Righ now my plan is to use U-Coat-It. (see post by gr8330 on page1 of this thread)
