I have the invos and they stick better than runflats and are overall a better driving experience, but more grip is better so I'm interested in the comparison of the RE-11s to Invos and the PS2.

Were the Invos in good shape when you made the change to RE-11s?

There is nothing better (Street tire wise) IMO.

What other tires have you tried on your C6? Were the tires you just took off worn out?

Well I've had the RE-11's on less than a week and around 100 miles..
Picked up something big this morning and had a rear go down.

I have the worst luck with new tires!

Invo's dry traction is not very good.

Of those three tires, the dry performance would be as follows in order of best to worst dry performance:

RE-11 > PS2 > Invo

For pure dry performance acceleration the Khumo XS is the best street tire.

The potenza RE-11 and the Khumo XS are the kings of dry performance street tires right now.
