Tubed vs tubeless same PSI
I had been running wtb resolutes size 42 tubeless. They’re not bad but I felt they were a bit sluggish. I swapped out for panaracer gravel kings size 40 but was running short on time so didn’t want to mess with setting up tubeless so just through in some tubes. The panaracers actually measure 42 so same as wtb’s. For some reason the gravel kings felt more harsh. I had same psi and rode my normal route. Does this make sense? Maybe the wtb sidewalls are more supple?

could be. I can't really feel the difference with a tubed or tubeless. Some tires react a little different to pressure than others though...
