    By "steering sensitivity" do you mean the steering ratio (degrees of rotation steering wheel per degree turn of steered wheel), the sensitivity of the power steering , or what? Please clarify.

    Lighter steering effort? More responsive steering "feel"?

    If you want better response to steering input, you generally need a shorter, stiffer sidewall. In other words, larger diameter rims with lower profile tires.
