Weight reduction and F/R Balance

I took out my back seat, spare tire and subwoofer from the back yesterday, and it got me to thinking... In this car it's much easier to remove weight from the back of the car than the front, meaning the overall weight shifts to the front.

So, is there a point at which having too much weight on the front of the car become detrimental to handling (increased understeer)? Or should I just stiffen my rear shocks to try and balance it out?
