shudder in steering under hard cornering??

Hey guys, 05 sedan 5AT stock, i have noticed under hard corners i feel some shudder through the steering. I bought the car with 19k miles on it in dec now currently with 26k on the clock. I dont know if it is the tires loosing traction which is causing them to bounce a little which would cause the feel through the steering or if something is not right? Now that i have had several months getting used to the car could it be that i am just driving it harder now and noticing it more? The rear tires are gone, they need replacement but the fronts still have some miles left in them. They are all original tires, could this be the problem? Or is there a TSB related to any of the steering components that i should be aware of? I dont want to go hassle the dealer and get a load of bs that everything is in factory spec ect....Any info would be great. Also this could just be a normal vibration under hard cornering?

most likely the brake rotors are wraped...is it happening when you're breaking while you're cornering? Shuttering while breaking usually means wrapped rotors

no braking involved, it generally happens during a tight quick turn in. feels a little like understeer.

VDC was turned off on the latest time happened. The shuddering isnt violent nor is it very hard, i dont feel as if i will ever loose control of the vehicle or anything like that. Its rather light in its effect.

I am monitoring the progression but i believe that it was just understeer, i did have VDC turned off and i wasnt applying brake or gas.
