Non-RFTs are going to offer some advantages, but there are the price/use trade-offs Ship noted based on driving style. Another thing to factor is are alignment settings. In addition to tires, alignment has a big impact on handling.

When you say you can feel the tires/car on edge, what are you experiencing? What does it feel like?

Do you know where your alignment is set now (and how long has it been since you're had an alignment)?

Stock alignment on the 3.0 is, I believe:

Front Camber = -0.5 deg to -1.4 deg (fairly wide range)
Front Toe = +0.05 deg to +0.18 deg (toe in)

Rear Camber = -2.6 deg to -3.1 deg
Rear Toe = +0.17 deg to +0.37 deg (toe in)
