Appropriate tire size is limited by rim width for proper profile. There are many reasons why the other bike may have felt more stable, it may not be the rear tire size in particular.

That being said, a good radial tire, in a 150 section width and a 60 series aspect ratio (150/60/17) would probably be the largest width rear tire that I would recommend on a stock rear wheel.
