Default is this normal?

whenever i take an on-ramp or sharp curve at high speeds the front wheels seems to slide, especially if they hit a bump in the pavement.

is this just normal understeer? or could there be a problem with my suspension/steering? i recently replaced my tires and had them aligned and balanced.

yes hondas have major understeer from factory just get better tires if you don't have good ones and have an alignment shop put in a little more negative camber

I suggest sliding your front wheels into a roadside concrete barrier. Hopefully this will teach you to slow the **** down dumbass.
