Lift throttle oversteer will occur in any turn, especially at the track.

+1 Lifting in the middle of a fast sweeper is like pressing the ejection button. It works every time.

Regarding the OP, I usually run 32/32 cold on the street. Running 29 up front will add a little ride comfort but not much noticeable change in handling.
