At the time i got 205/45/16 tires. But i feel like car is way to sensitive to uneven roads. It's fine when i drive aggressive and fast, but when im in cruising mode, it handles like its bored and wants to steer all on its own. I feel like im wrestling with my steering wheel. My 185/55/14 winter tires handles like a boat, but is more pleasent to cruise on.
Could it be that my tires are just bad quality, or do i have to use a different width? Would something like 195/50/16 work? |

sounds like your car is tramlining and is catching the ruts on the road. this is common when you switch to a plus size wheel setup with lower offset and wider tires.
