Chamby your Toe was out enough, before your last alignment, that it was probably causing grief to the edges of your tire tread. Your last alignment looks good. It's probably just the tire wear that is screwing up the handling now. That and the problem of getting the Bal. true on the larger tires (coupled with the need for speed). If you let the new tires ever start cupping, then it's almost too late to get long wear out of them. You should feel the tires regularly to see how they are wearing. You should be able to feel something going wrong, before it's to late. I would see if Conti. would replace the tires, and get a LOAD balance on the new ones. This would prevent or delay the tire from ever starting to go bad, from high speed unbalance.
Most of what I said is true unless you are a freak like me. For some reason I haven't been able to keep the Toe adjusted. I take it right back and redo it as soon as I feel it going out. If the steering wheel is not on center, then something has changed in the alignment............ usually the TOE. If it is pulling either left or or or right. maybe camber change. To hard or to easy to turn left or right probably Caster. Darting left and right, probably Toe, front or rear.
These are my thoughts Folks, and I am no expert. These 300's are overly sensitive to alignment spec's, but the recommended (preferred) spec's on the TSB are close. (If you can get them to stay.) I must say that the difficult Camber and Caster spec's, are the hardest to get right (requiring a cradle shift or a change in the camber and/or caster bolts). But once set, they have kept the alignment for me. Hope this helps....... Dixie
