I like @Schwartzring 's thinking on this, but I would add one thing:
The relic mats to get to r5 generally don't conflict with boosting g12 toons to g13. Going from g12+0 gear to g13 or r1 is still pretty tough in this game.
At your level of play, I wouldn't say do not relic past r5, but I would say that you should be careful of relicing past r5. Most toons should, for now, go up to r5 but no higher UNLESS you have a very specific reason. That reason could be anything (maybe it's a requirement for a GL or maybe it's just a toon you love and it will make you happy to max it out), but make sure that you have a reason why that particular toon should be an exception. Otherwise you'll need to slow down your g12 progress in order to speed up your r6/r7 progress.
What's nice is that with enough g12 toons you can get yourself into a guild running the speeder bike raid. And once you're there, you can buy those precious r6+ mats using raid rewards instead of salvaging valuable g12 gear.
So let your r5s sit and percolate. At least most of them. You can always bring them up later, and a team with one r5 and 4 r2s or r3s is going to be much stronger than a team with 1 r7 or r8 and a bunch of g12s.
Schwartzring said "r5 or higher" and I'm not contradicting that. I just think you should give some careful evaluation to the character before going higher than r5.
