ANYONE EXPERIENCE WHEELSPIN IN CORNERS?

2017 RS CAMARO with 15,000 miles and stock RS tires and rims, A8 non-LSD. Tires are in great shape and have been rotated every 5000 miles! When I first got the car 2 years ago i distinctly remember the car hooked like a MOFO even with the $#!tty launch of the A8. Cornering was really precise and stable!

However....I recently noticed that the rear end tends to slide SLIGHTLY more in cornering. I floored it and spun tires like crazy last night when trying to make a left turn and beat traffic. (I'm like WTF??) I drove it to work this morning and was accelerating through a long wide turn coming off an interstate ramp and felt more loose through the steering so I let off it.

Could it be the stock tires wearing down too quickly? lack of an LSD, or result of mods that I put on the car?

My mods are Airaid, intake, filter, TB spacer. P&P throttle body, dual turbine mufflers, ground kit, and removed butterfly valves.

I'm thinking its the tires, but hope to get some opinions...

Could be tires, could be temps and road conditions, etc...I'd measure the tread depth and see where you're at

I have personally driven my camaro to its limit on track and on street (Grey 2018 RS Auto) and depending on throttle I have had the rear end kick out on me a couple of times. I do have more bald tires in the front since I rotated mine from the back because of me doing donuts. So the front has a tad more grip in the rear. Also divits in the road has caused wheel spin in the corner.
