I ran them in 265/305 on wider rims. 11 inches in the rear and 10 inches up front.
To me the tires never looked good. Seemed to be of a lower profile overall leaving more fender gap.
They did not have very good rim protection bead either.
Presently I am on the Bridgestone Potenza S0-4 Max summer tire.
They are on stock rims and look better and handle well.
I paid $860 mounted.

I have the Invos, they are decent street tires, I can't think of any complaints. I mean they aren't the stickiest but they aren't really for that. I went with them because I wanted a good street tire that I didn't have to worry about in the rain and they delivered what I was wanting.

I had Continental DW tires last season and only got 6 track days, and that was pushing it down to the wear markers.
Michelin PS2 run-flats before that. I wasn't tracking the car yet. Got 8000 miles with some fast driving but nothing extreme. Pilot Super Sport did not come in base 'vette sizes yet when I bought these. PS2 is now an outdated and overpriced option.
For what it's worth, Consumer Reports has Pilot Super Sport as their #2 summer tire, tied with the Pirelli PZero in overall score, and with better wear than all the other tires.
