Can't see any advantage in them myself. They weigh more, cost more, tires cost more, tires weigh more, have less size options, etc. But, if its needed to clear huge street style disc brakes, then you don't have a choice. Don't know if the rims could be stronger due to bigger diameter, have to think about that.
They do look nice though, I know when I tried a 29 inch tire on the dakota for RT reasons it changed the look quite a bit, and they scrubbed(too tall_ so I traded them to my lil red for a beer to be named later.
