I just installed super low profile 19 inch rims a couple weeks ago and It helped handling alot but the crash over potholes isnt too great...
IMO, the run-flat tires are the primary culprit of the crashingly harsh ride. Going to bigger wheels with a lower profile tire is certainly not going to help.
