Help, just put new tires on!

hey guys, my stock setup was 225's in the front, and 245's in the rear. The tires were michelin pro pilots. The 225's in the front were done so what i did was change the 245's onto the front rims, and put them in the front and put some new Nitto 555 285/35/18's in the back, no problem whatsoever putting them on, clearance and everything is perfect...As i left my shop i realized that my car would turn waaaaaay better on the streets...But on the freeway at higher speeds...it feels pretty squirly, like when i turn a little bit it jerks the car. I don't know if it is that i have toooo good of traction, or whats going on...The nittos in the back grab great...Just need some opinion from anyone with a similar experience.

let the tires break in...they have to compounds that wear off after a couple hundred miles then the tires grip even better

What rims do you have? They can't be stock since you have 18" staggered tires. If they are stock, how did you even manage to fit those size tires on the stock wheels? Since you went much wider on the new tires, check your camber and have an alignment done.
