Try tyre pressures, I run mine quite hard (36psi) which I find improves the handling considerably for 32 psi.
I used to find my car twitchy, then I took off Pzeros and fitted Goodyear F1's, I would not go back to Pzeros. If you tyres are standard they are Bridgestone RE010, which aren't too good.
As to AP vs Alcons, a lot has been said in the 'Wheels, Tyres and Brakes Forum' a couple of weeks back. I think the jist of it was, AP's better stopping power etc, but Alcons cheaper and better dealer support.
