Message A performance tire will have a stiffer sidewall, however, more sidewall will generally make the car less stable at higher (any) speed. For example, my 295/35/18 BFG drag radials were unstable because of their design and the large sidewall (for compliance during a drag racing launch).

So many times I thought we were going to fly off the track. Absolutely nuts, but it was great fun."
