My experience is that 6x VMC's snap about 50% of the time if you cut them and try to open them to avoid using split rings.
6x hooks weigh about the same as the next size up 4x hook, add a split ring instead of a cut treble and you get the weight of 2 sizes up so switching from 4x to 6x can significantly effect your plug's action.
Big fish will crush/straighten 6x pretty easily as well (notice the crush job on the front treble in the pic....also notice the lip and the dent in the plug beneath my 4th finger from the impact when the fish hit the rock)
If you are really worried about using the strongest trebles check out owner hooks. Very expensive, however.
