Correction...more (archive)

If your car is oversteering, you should dial in more understeer by lowering the pressure in the fronts and increasing the rears. By doing the opposite, you increasing oversteer. Whenever you increase the front tire pressures, your turn-in becomes more responsive and it becomes easier to swing the rear around.

My sways are set full stiff in the rear and middle in the front. My car still understeers a lot. Last time at the track, I increased the front tire pressures and decreased the rears. This corrected some of the understeering.

No. Just the opposite. Reducing pressure will increase grip.
