Those GP 4-seasons are no cheap date either, but I am sure they are more practical and more sturdy than the gp5000s. I don't know if I will ever buy another set of gp5000s, I was just curious to ride on a pair of them so it is out of my system, now I am looking into what other tires may have to offer. I have one standard 25mm wide Gatorskin here and I am surprised at how light it is, and they have an excellent reputation, and also can be had at a lower price than the gp5000. I suspect that there are many tires out there that would be fun to try out and also as satisfying to ride on as the gp5000.
