Check your tire pressures first. Suggest you set them at 32, or whatever is on the driver's door jamb for your tire size.

Thanks JCL. Did that and it helps a bit. Will going to larger rims and tires change the ride for the better?

Going bigger will make the ride stiffer and you'll be able to feel the road better.

Yep, the lower profile tires are a stiffer ride and they have noticeably less flex/roll in the turns so you will handle much better. That and they are quite a bit wider as well so you can hook them turns faster. It will be quite the transformation in handling, will feel it more so than new sway bars IMO.
