Default Anyone have Sumitomo HTRZ III tires?

since i put my new rims and tires on my car, it feels unstable at high speeds like on the highway, it seems a little floaty? From what i understand it could be due to the width of the front tires, there 275/35/18 and 285 in the back. depending on the roads i drive on could it be due to the imperfections on the road? i am worried about going to the track and running at high speeds
