i have noticed the top heaviness too, many times.
im wondering, would that extra 2cm of tire width really make such a diff? honest question....

I honestly think the little bit extra rubber would have to help a bit, that has to be the one "major" issue in the car top heaviness.
yea, ever since i saw that crash video from the micra cup, .....heck, even before that, i knew how top heavy it felt when i made even very moderate turns
once my current tires expire, ill have to look into wider tires...i wonder how that affects the tire price, and fuel economy...
I put 195s on my SR auto. I noticed a difference in cornering. Better than the stock 185s. I have 16" rims. Continental extreme contact tires. Love them.
The body roll is EXTREME on the car's stock suspension setup. I've corrected it with some aftermarket parts and it handles much better, I only run these during the summer.
