In the end it doesn't matter whether it's that I'm into the front bumpstops or something else, but running out of front travel was a real issue with the Sachs struts, less so with Bilsteins but I'd bet I'm into the stops a bit. Which is actually a *normal* thing with these cars anyway...

But long/short, I need more front grip and this is one way to get it, whether the "problem" is lack of front bump travel or not.

I'd rather play with rear camber and/or toe to your liking rather than take away tire...
Again, I'm not "taking away tire" overall. I'm adding tire to the end that's WAY into the nonlinear/non-productive portion of the load/grip curve, and taking away a smidge from the end that doesn't need it.

Rear camber and toe are where I want them, don't have the sheet in front of me but rear camber is -2.75ish and rear toe is in the zero to 0.1 degrees total range.

Besides that, sounds like you need a shock revalve
It's a mid-corner push, it ain't the shocks...
