I think you're right

There are two "easy" ways to control the S's tendency to oversteer on non-staggered tires: a ricey wing or a large front bar, but not both in my experience. Add rear toe to desired taste

I chose the wing route and found the car to be very tame with very little rear toe.

what about adjusting the shocks? softening the rear and stiffening the frong?

I could only get about -1.7* of negative camber up front out of one side. The other would go to -1.9 or so, so I equalized them at -1.7 and zeroed toe. The rears are at -2.4 camber with 1/16" gross toe in. What do most get out of the front for negative camber stock? The car definitely seems much better as far as steady state cornering and doesn't seem to oversteer. It does about 1G for cornering via Performancebox on Dunlop Direzza star specs, so it isn't bad. I just expected to get more camber out of the front...(?)
