Your problem is that the stock Goodyears suck. They lost the Vette contract and Michelin now makes the tires for the Vette.
Do a search here, there are endless threads on how bad they are.

the rears are normal, the fronts should be the same or worse on the inside, if there is wear on the outside edge there's someting wrong with the alinment

And not necessarily because they "suck"...a lot of factors go into a supplier contract.
OP...I would certainly do an alignment to base/street specs.
Just sayin...

Alignment for sure. Many C6s leave the factory needing an alignment.

If you have other information about said supplier contract, we're all ears.
