Just to confirm the tyres im running at present are Yokohama Advan Nedva AD08 R
215/45 R17 87w.
Seem like fairly decent tyres if im honest, positive grip in corners.
As for the snatchy steering it seems to be on light uneven roads, suspect its from uneven wear on the fronts.

I will finish the set off and try a different brand, hearing good things about bridgestone potenza RE050M2's, thoughts for road use as not going to be tracking the car any time soon! Thanks again guys !

AD08R is a fantastic tyre, stick with it. The tyre type won't be causing the issue, but the uneven wear might be contributing.

The Bridgestone are getting hard to find. AD08R's are good. The AD048 not so.
