    The only paved driveways I have seen that haven't sunk along the wheel tracks have had a concrete slab under neath them

    I don't think you understand the logistics of either option ... paving would need significant digging out, laying of roadbase, heavy compaction then laying ... and even then they would sag and sink under the weight of vehicles (especially getting traction up a slope).

    Concrete you need footing and formwork and reinforcing steel etc ... you can't just throw a bit on cement on the ground and expect it to last more than a few weeks.

    Google is your friend - google concrete contractors in your area and help yourself
