I don't know if Paul Gage is doing tires for SCX 1:43, but he is doing them for Kyosho D-Slots (and they're excellent, btw). So there's hope. :)
At least the low weight of the SCX cars should help to reduce wear somewhat, but Ninco track is a meat grinder that eventually turns everything into rubber dust.
Your point about the track instantly being 34% longer for 1:43 cars is a good one. It's very easy to crowd a track with 1:32 cars, but several 1:43 cars on your 1:32 layout looks like it would be very manageable. And these bodies are much less prone to damage than 1:32 cars, which makes it easier to enjoy digital without worrying about destroying your car collection.
