Over the years, non-rf tire technology has gotten good enough for me to be done with RFs.
If you want to stay with rfs, the choice is limited.
I would pick anything but Goodyear, they never lasted and drove poorly.
I have not tested Michelins RF technology, but if it is like the PSSs ( I am told it is) I would pick the Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 ZP in OEM sizes unless you have a lot of cold weather and want longer tread life the Michelin
Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP might be better.

FYI if you didn't know, some of the C6 Z06 & ZR1 models run a Michelin Pilot Sport Cup ZP (Track & Competition DOT) and the above PS2 ZP
PS, the Michelin Michelin Promise Plan warranty is hard to beat:
