Yep, that's why I was asking. I picked them up a little while back for cheap cheap, so I wasn't all that worried about it. I just have really bad understeer, but I think it's due more to my horrid michelin pilot primacies. I am getting new tires on the front tomorrow.

Thank you for the info very much. Is funny you say thet emptied their parts bins, because on some things they did, but on others it was an option for the first time in three years... Like prewiring for EVERYTHING! Haha. Thanks again.

Still didn't work, but I have found a solution. I had to get new front tires, but was short on cash. I got two cheap *** Kumo's ($210 installed, balanced, and with road hazard insurance for the pair), and am extremely surprised. My car is a different machine... handling is remarkably improved. Imagine how it will be with actually GOOD tires!
