The whole reason i bought Treps was because years ago i went to an XRRA event and saw what a beatdown they were putting on them....with little issues. I knew when i built my buggy i did NOT want to have issues with tires, i needed them to last as long as possible because tires are such a major investment....i know that there are some great tires out there these days but i have saw more sidewall cuts on SX's than Treps and personally think it really depends on how you use them....and how heavy of a rig they are on. any tire can get cut, i feel like it is less likely to have it happen with Treps, just my opinion.my buggy weighed in at 3220 lbs and with a 4 cyl it does not have the power to get to crazy. Don't know how the "thin sidewall" thing came about but I cant see how anyone could think this.....Treps have massavie amounts of tread on the side. At the Crawling for Reid ride I crawled out the side of Trail 66 to winch my buddies buggy over to prevent a roll, the next rig rolled, so after the rollover two rigs tried to go the same way and were on SX's and had to give heck to get up the same spot.What this tells me is some tires work better then others at times and each tire choice has advantages and disadvantages...but i think BOTH are GREAT and have there place.
