It has 17x 7 I think and 235 wide. I think it's me when I hit the Bumps around a corner and the steering being really really touchy, I'm moving the steering wheel though the corner which is making the car sway. The steering is def just too touchy for me. I just going to have to spend some time changeing the settings of the sus and possiable take the power steering off.

Park the car. Sit on the guard or push it up and down with as much suspension movement as you can . Look to see if the wheels move in & out. If they do, you have bump steer which means the steering is set up incorrectly.

out of curiosity how's your lower control arm angles up front?? and camber..

heaps of neg camber, (mostley in the rear) will give the car a 'nervous' feel over bumps mid corner..

Also if you have lowered it excessivley your control arm's and steering arms will be pointing to the sky.. which will increase the effect of bump steer..

i think you should look at both of those... as either one of them fits the description your giving
