I currently run 38c SK and it’s due for replacement soon and would like to try the slicks version.
I’m on the road I’d say 95% of the time. Should I go with GK 32c slicks, or 35c?
Is there a huge difference in ride feel and rolling resistance if choose either of them?
Attached a photo of my bike for your pleasure!
Thanks everyone!

GK SS+ for me.
35c sounds great, more comfy and almost no loss in resistance
I’d go for the SS. I run the 40 slicks on my gravel/commuter and they really get a lot of damage due to the thinner casing on the road. Mine are filled with small cuts constantly on the tread. Also you can sometimes lose traction when out of the saddle in anything less than hard pack gravel on climbs. If anything, grab the SS for the thicker rubber and better wet traction on dirt
