Hi all. I've been using Michelin tires for a good while, ran Road 4 and Road 4 GT tires on my RT for the last 3 years, and have been very happy with them. Last year I transitioned to Road 5's, and cannot recommend them enough. With the latest MOA magazine, I see mentions of Road 5 GTs - I was wondering when they were going to be released, and now here they are. Yay!
With the Road 4 GT, my thoughts would be the GT had a slightly stiffer carcass. Only after transitioning back to a road 4 did I notice the extra stiffness of the 4 GT. I'm starting this thread for those of you who try out the Road 5 GT, to post your findings, feedback, etc. Things I'm curious about:
- Mileage and longevity of the Road 5 GT
- Any observable differences between the 5 and 5GT in road feel, handling, performance
- Factors in your decision to try the Road 5 GT versus Road 5
When I was running on the Road 4s, I wondered how things could get any better. Transition to Road 5s, and they keep moving in an excellent direction! Now we have Road 5 GTs to try out. Post your findings!
