Default Camber Question

17x8 +45mm 225/45/17f 0 camber up front
17x9 +38mm 235/45/17r -2 in rear

Rides fine on smooth roads but on roads with grooves or uneven pavement the tires would guide themselves on the grooves/cracks etc... I'd pull left or right so I find myself correcting the streeting wheel. Kinda scary @ times. Is this normal or how can I correct it? Is it because of the +0 camber up front & -2 in rear? If both were -2 would it stop or get worse? Any info be great.. thanks.

Directional high-performance tires tend to "tramline" or follow the grooves in the road. What did they set your toe at when you got an alignment? A smidge of toe-in up front should make it a little less darty.

What should it be set @? I had them set toes to 0? I heard some people say even if you are @ a -2 camber if you set your toes to 0 you shouldnt have bad tire wear. Is this incorrect?
