steering too soft

is there anyway to lessen the power-assist steering so that the steering is much heavier to turn? the wider tires are pulling my steering wheel when I go over bumps and wot.

thanks guys.

Doesn't really have anything to do with your steering. There's physics behing it. It's called bump steer. Could be a caused by your offset and the wider tires are a factor too.

humm... offset is 45mm (stock) and width is 215 from 195.... maybe the lowering did this? too much toe out?

Could be that too. IIRC you haven't gotten an alignment yet?
