No kidding, the grip with those tires is unimaginable.

I turned off all traction controls completely, got on Sports mode and got to a corner with approx 50 kmh while trying hard to loose the grip, nothing happened.
In that case you were simply not going fast enough to reach the limit. I don't have any problems going over the limit with my Michelin Pilot Sport 3 tires, which should have around the same grip level as your Goodyears. Maybe the car understeers more if you run wider rear tires than front tires.
