For what it's worth, I checked the Michelin website. Where they previously had the Road 5 GT available in 190/55-17, it is no longer listed there as an option. Something must be up! :020:

I have not tried the Road 5's as of yet. I had such good results with the PR 4 GT's, I had to stay with them!

Sure. Got mine on Ebay- https://www.ebay.com/itm/2x-Panasonic-CR-2032-VCN-3V-Lithium-Coin-Battery-Vert-2-Pin-for-Real-Time-Clock/392404419775?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649. I also noticed Amazon has the same battery-https://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-Battery-ThinkPad-Latitude-Pavilion/dp/B08GSRSCW4.

I used CR-2032/VCN batteries(Panasonic). The tabs are already on them, but the orientation of the tabs and their size makes it easy to align with the existing solder points in the TPMS units. Another plus with these is the perimeter is encased with a yellow vinyl material, which prevents the tab from the negative side from accidentally shorting to the positive side, when the tab is brought up to it's needed orientation to solder to the unit. Make sure to have the positive pole facing upward when you install the new battery.

Yes, same mileage on the rear. Since I have had such a good experience with the PR4 GT's, it was a no-brainer on what tires I would replace them with. Just hope the next set is as good...  :084: Hoping this year brings more rides to try them out!

If I had to guess, maybe 30% on east coast interstates, with most of that @ 75+mph. Attached photo of finished battery install in TPMS unit .
