rather than start a new thread, figured i'd ask here! what kind of lifespan are people getting from their GP 5000S TR? i feel like they're lasting less long than the previous GP5000 TL, but my sample size is small. this rear (30mm) has a hair under 1,500 miles:





all of my rear tires seem to get this distinctive squared off (hexagonal, really?) profile. is this typical, or perhaps due to most of the wear happening while going in a straight-ish line? braking hard before a corner, climbing seated? all my riding is on roads, the usual mix of super beautiful new paving and rough-ish rural and urban roads. weight of bike and rider and accessories is 200lb. i run between 60 and 70psi.
