I have not. I just built up a Wreckoning with 30mm wheels and am running the Minion 2.5WT and the setup with the 29er wheels is even better than the 27.5 Ibis setup on my last bike. Take a little more to get them moving from a stop, but once they are going, they just keep going and going. I think you could get away with thinner rims but no way you could get away with the lower PSI of the wider.
