Default steering

Hi all,

I have a 2006 C6. I have run flats and after market replica ZR1 wheels. I've always thought the steering fell real easy especial at a stop. I felt a 2010 V6 Camaros steering at a stop and it felt a lot more solid and hard to turn. Maybe it didn't have steering assist? Just want to see if there is something wrong with mine. Opinions? Thoughts?

Thank you

I'm with you Daytona624 but minds is opposite. I have a 06 M6. My steering isn't tight at a light but when I get on it the steering get hard for some reason. I have a 19/20 set up with concave wheels (No RF) so I'm thinking it the wheels. I know they upgrade the steering in 08 and my dad had a 08 and a 12 GS. Both felt different to me.

Bottom line I think it the tires and the fact the 06 didn't have the upgrade steering like the 08's and above.
