Have you had casing cuts in your tires? I ran Oozy 295s for a few years and really liked them.
But two factors led me away from them: I really dislike the name. I find it dumb to run a rim with a huge "Spank" emblazoned on it. And they clear-coat over the decal, so it can't be removed.
Also, I think they are so strong, that they don't deform under impact. I've cut quite a few tires (including a DD) pinch flatting them. I'm not sure if it's that the rim sidewall is very strong and sharp, or the shape and angle of the sidewall, but whatever it was, I wound up cutting quite a few tire casing.
