EOS R/RP with Tamron 24-70 and 70-200 2.8 G2 lenses

Hey folks!

I finally decided to make the jump from 6D mkII to mirrorless, still undecided if R or RP but one decision I already made: to get rid of my 24-105 f4 mkI and get a 24-70 f2.8.

Thinking about cost vs quality and considering that with mirrorless the front/backfocus inconsistency is basically non existent, I'm leaning towards Tamron G2 lenses.

The only review of the combination I'm looking for is this:

So I'm coming to you guys and asking:

  1. Have you used Tamron G2 lenses on your R camera?
  2. How was autofocus and tracking?
  3. Any concerns?
  4. Sigma art lens is a good option?

Thanks!
