Rims and Front End ?s on 9-5 Aero Wgn

I have a 2001 9-5 aero wgn with 144K on it. I drive a lot of country roads (aka POT HOLES and BROKEN BLACKTOP!!Grrrrrr!!) I have had numerous issues with bent rims and tires cupping. I have had the front end aligned several times to spec - now the last place says they got it "close." The rear alignment has never been spot on - so no doubt why the cupping on the back tires.
My questions are this - I read on here about increasing the PSI of tires as they do seem to be too soft for bumpy roads. I have 225/45R-17 Kumho Xsta ASX tires. Are those even the right size - should I increase from a 45 to a 50?
Also, my indy has checked the front end and says all looks ok - but I am getting vibration in the steering wheel. So... what should have been replaced at this point with this mileage ( 144K)
Thanks for the help!!
