Very low profile tires are not good on bumps. They are designed for perfectely flat and pristine surfaces. Bad roads and bumps can cause the car with low profile tires to 'trammel' or let the road control the direction of the car a little. The tires sort of get caught in between the bumps and ridges instead of floating over then with hi-profile tires. You get this affect when you give up so much sidewall with no tire flex.
