I have a spare I'll install when needed. As far as the RR difference between this and the GP 5000, well, I don't ride fast enough to worry about that.

My most recent tires, tubeless Schwalbe Pro One Evo Addix, got about 2500-3000 per rear tire and were a little more supple than the Power Road TLRs, so I was really hoping the Michelin would be significantly better in terms of mileage. As far as RR, they're all pretty fast, fast enough for me to not worry about it, at least.
