You be the judge. There were versions with and without sipes. Based on published race photos I believe with sipes was first but because SAI used multiple versions of tires in any given time frame it could have been in part just slightly different tires for different tracks and or conditions. I chose a picture of a tire without sipes because I don't see any signs of them being present in the shirt print.
