Any Advantage to using a brand specific trainer tire?

[Warhound]

I tried using an old continental GP4000 SII on my older tacx genius last winter and it started coming apart in 2-3 rides ,black dust everywhere.

Guess it depends on the specific tire and trainer, some combinations seem to work just fine…others not so much

Check the images here for an example.

Trainer on too tight?

Just did my first ramp test for trainer road. I bought a used trainer, a tacx blue manic. And a yellow cycle ops trainer wheel. I was a bit shocked when I got of my trainer and the trainer had tore the tire up leaving the little yellow pieces everywhere. See the attached pics.
