The wheelbase is 1" shorter than on the average car. There is a bit of a roll and somedays I feel it more than others on the expressway when on a curved ramp. I was thinking of getting wider tires. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Well the guy started with a P195/70R14 Cooper LifeLine Classic and the highway handling was not good.
Now I have a P205/60R14 RoadHugger and the highway handling is superb, buuuut I'm not sure I like the way they look. kind of small for the car - like a baby tire.
The Cooper's were $60 each. maybe if I spent the bucks, I could get a quality tire in the original size) with EXCEPTIONAL traction that will make the difference on the highway.
I probably don't need that much performance that the RoadHugger is providing.
Any recommendations on makes?
