Get a camber gauge and adjust your rear camber.

4 wheel alignment.
This is 4 wheel independent suspension so the rear wheels are actually MORE complicated than the fronts as far as suspension and alignment..

You can set the camber and even some degree of toe..but to make it drive right and NOT slip around like its on ICE when it rains...
Get a 4 wheel thrust angle (center-line of chassis) alignment.
