225/40-18 Pilot Sport 4 (not S, not available in EU).
The issue is (I don't know the correct english terms): the only way to prevent spinning, is giving (a few) retarded gas just when I'm going out of the turn, if I anticipate the back starts spinning.
Tyre pressure is 2.4 bar on all 4 wheels, with a professionally calibrated manometer.
This happens a lot on slow turns (2nd-3rd gear), and not at high speed.

How old are the tires? My personal experience with Michelin is that they do not age well and grip drops off even though you might still have tread left.
Maybe consider dropping the rear tire pressure to 2.2 bar? I hear of people running 2 bar for autocross when using extreme summer tires such as Hankook RS-4 or Bridgestone RE71-R. I've never driven on the Pilot Sport 4 but I assume it also has a decently stiff sidewall.
