Default i think 275 is too big

ok so i allready have 275's in the front but next time i get new tires i dont want that big. my rim is 9 inch wide, what other smaller tires could i fit on there. its a personal prefrence, but i dont really want somthing that big up front for handeling reasons, they just feel to big.

But a narrower tire up front is going to increase understeer (push) in your cars handling..?
