Not me! I've owned 6 Stelvios. Not a one of them wore out; they all suffered structural failure of one kind or another. The 406 version especially seems to like delaminating the cord, resulting in a wavy contact strip. In the pic here, the rim is true; only the tire carcass is crooked.
edit: I agree, they're entirely too fragile and short-lived to use on a trike.
