Bontrager Valiant or Mustangs?

[The Truth]

Heres another edition of an old comparison:

Bontrager Mustangs or Valiants?????????

165 lb XC hard-tailed speed freak on the East Coast. I hit the rocks in Ringwood, NJ and the trails
in VT. Nothing more than the occasional 2-3 foot drop in terms of pure air.

Im concerned with strength and sidewall wear (running XTR V- brakes) so any comments on these two
factors with either of these two hoops would be great!

Im going to lace these to King Hubs.

Thanks!!!
