Default Tire width and steering

We have a '12 jk with a 5.5" rk lift and toyo 37s. The jeep pulls to the left and right seemingly according to the variations in the road. A friend said that's due to the width of the toys (1350). Is this right? Will a steering stabilizer correct it?
Thanks

They are correct. Wider tires give a floatier feel. I would suggest adj lcas before a new stabilizer

Check your tire pressure, and caster (may need control arms as suggested above)
