If you have the rescue kit there are two factors that make a difference, the toe setting and the tires. As to toe, make sure it is 0 - 1 mm toe in and that it is set with each wheel referenced to the centerline, not just to the other tire.
The real culprit, however, is likely to be the tires. Some have more problem from day one, but most of those that are worst seem to become much worse with age. If the tires are worn, or uneven at all, replacement or rear to front rotation may improve things substantially, especially if you have done a lot of lead foot driving, which results in uneven wear. Michlin has alway been a problem in this regard. Bridgestones are not as bad, but certainly show the problem at the end of their life. I have no experience with the Pirelli P zeros. Tire pressue will help alleviate this somewhat because the additional pressure reduces the contact patch, and firms the tire carcass, both of which reduce Tramming, although it may or may not improve overall performance. Hope this helps.
