A great explanation of how Cush Cores ride Cam. I think it's best to look at tires/inserts/rims as a system that has to work together. For the conditions I ride in (north shore), I've found that carbon rims (NOBL TR38), Maxxis MaxxGrip with EXO sidewalls along with Cush Cores is the perfect combination. This combo results in a strong AF wheel, amazing grip and ride, and weight isn't too bad.
Maybe if I rode somewhere with sharper, loose rocks (i.e.: BC interior), I'd be more worried about slashed sidewalls.
