Ever heard of punctuations? Use them.

When you say bigger tires, are you referring to wider or taller?

If you run the typical e9x 19" setup, you'll want to stick to the 235/25/19 and 265/30/19 setup. Otherwise you'll likely end up with tire rub.

If you have instability issues with your car, then there's something wrong. Cheap tires with soft sidewalls will also give your car a floaty feel. "Bigger" tires is not going to fix your problem.

I am running Michelin Pilot Super Sports on my 19" setup. They're solid performers.
