Plactions are cheaper than IFI wheels in the 6-8 inch sizes, I believe.
For live axles, you need an AndyMark hub to use an IFI wheel live, which is a lot more weight. With AM you can just use Performance wheels.
Other than that, nothing wrong with IFI wheels. If we went dead axle and wanted roughtop tread, we'd use them. The wheels not being round just doesn't matter.

For the teams that use IFI wheels, what size do you use?

Smaller is better unless you have a design need to go bigger.

Someone mentioned changing the treads on them. How often do they get worn out?

Not all that often. Maybe once a season. Wedgetop wears much faster than roughtop. Our tread on AM wheels lasted until we drove the wheel on asphalt for several hours. Apparently that dings up the rivets enough to throw tread? Who'da thunk it.
