PASM/suspension issues ?

This afternoon, I drove a 2006 Carerra S equipped with PASM (standard). When i activate it, i drove it over a few bumps and noticed that the suspension did provide a harsher ride. however as I was taking corners (w/pasm on), and driving on regular roads, the car felt wobbly...kinda like a boat on water.

Can anyone think of what might be wrong with the suspension or is that just how C2S's ride with pasm on ? With my C4S, it was like riding on rails when activated.

I didn't check the tire pressure, but can over inflated tires be a possible explanation ? Or is there something wrong with the car ?

did you have aftermarket sways and/or springs on your C4S? i know that when i drove a stock C2S right after i had simply gotten after market sways on mine, i could def tell a diff in body roll around turns.
