I have found that ever since I put the big wheels on, the steering wheel has too much play, and its not as stiff as I like. Where as the new X has a nice responsive feel.

Steering components getting worn?

Would changing the PS fluid help this any?
The steering is still stiff in typical BMW fashion. It's just that it feels lighter when turning at low speeds, it still feels precise and hard just much smoother.

Just for comparison I drove a Merc E350 and the steering on that car is so effortless you could turn it with your pinky finger no joke.
