It's mostly tire width that makes the difference...

...between the SE and the Aero. Since the Aero has the low-profile, wider tires, it is more subject to camber steer. I never experienced the effect before I switched from 195/60R15 to 215/45R17. Now it is present, but never dangerous or annoying.
Since front end alignment is claimed to be correct by the dealer, it has been pointed out that the rear end alignment may be the lemon-causing issue. Abbott verifys that the tolerances for variation in the rear axle are quite poor. The rear axle is supposed to be non-adjustable. However, there are reports of successful rear-end alignment of NG900s to the proper spec. I remember that a sort of GM J-Body shim can be used. Alternately, Abbott sells an adjusted rear axle for much money.
