Anyone familiar with the Power Cup TLR tires? Rated will at

I have a couple sets but both are mounted with TPU tubes. I like them, I run
28mm at about 55psi (I'm roughly 130lbs) and I also have a set of 25mm running around 65psi. The 28s are really really smooth and roll nicely. Please note I am not hyper sensitive to the differences in tires though. I can't tell a difference between 28mm Veloflex Evo Corsa TLRs actually set up tubeless, measuring a hair under 28mn vs the 25mm Power Cup TLRs measuring 25.5mm

One thing to be cautious of, as noted on BRR, is the width of the tread. Apparently the width is really narrow and a lot of pictures surfaced of obvious cornering wear on the sidewalls from high lean angles. I don't ever lean that hard, and I do run these on narrower wheels (OG Reynolds Aero 58s and 1st gen Enve 3.4s). If I cornered and leaned hard, I'd probably search for another tire.
