WOT, as you say, right around 75+ MPH the car just feels like its floating at times. I don't feel it otherwise, and it doesn't matter which performance mode I'm in. I've even rotated through the various traction control modes with no luck.
I posted a thread on here about the car and the feel, feel like it pretty much just needed to be aligned with the general consensus but I totally get what you are saying and I have the EXACT same tires on the car. I don't think its a coincidence.
Here's the link to my thread:

Damn, thanks for sharing your experience. So you got the car with four NT555? The dealer said I did not need alignment, but maybe I will take it somewhere else to do it anyways. Its really scary sometimes.

Someone also told me about the softer sidewall hypothesis. With the stock tires, the car was so steady and I was always impressed with how it could handle anything with so much precision. But you're right, that could explain, and also the mix of harder sidewalls on the front, softer on the back.
