I got a pair of early 2023 date code 275/35-18 Michelin Pilots Sport 4 (not 4S) on close out and a pair of early 2024 date code 295/35-18 Michelin Pilot SuperSports. No issues so far in a few hundred miles logged with this "miss matched" set. If I had to do over again I gone with the same sizes, but went with the Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 tires. I was also seriously considering the 305/30-19 size on a 19x11 rim, but the offset is for the C6 rear and you need to use a 15mm spacer (per Apex) with those rims on the rear of a C5 - no thanks.

I eventually found a C5 vert in pewter that didn't have black interior and now own it I found in sunny Florida it is not good to have black seats and this one was worth waiting for..

Did you take it down the hood? I have always liked the Baldwin Motion stripes but balked because of the rear bumper body panel seam that the C3’s don’t have.
