Last with age they get wider.

Edit. Found some older data on 19mm inside Bontrager Aeolus 5 rim brake.

Conti 5000 25 mm 85 & 67 psi 27.4 mm 19 mm
Conti 5000 28 mm 87 psi 29.0 mm 19 mm
I am too lazy to measure that now, but I didnt though rim width could affect tire width.

I still think gp 5000 are narrower when I look them in my hands side to side regardless of the rim.
