Treated myself to these Enkei J10's

Could be. The mass won't make any difference, but different tyres sizes and compounds exert different resistance to being steered.

What size was the wheels before?

Could well be new tyre syndrome, especially if they've got a few extra psi in too.
I recently put new tyres all round on the lude and felt that I lost a little of the feel, a thousand or so miles in and all is well again.

wheels may be lighter so will make the steering a bit lighter new tyres with more psi will also feel lighter look great though

Morning Ratty, they were the 15inch Enkei sawblades.
@Greg-SiR Yes, I noticed the paint marks and wondered what they were

Thanks everyone, actually this morning I took the long way round to get to my office. The roads were nice and quiet so had a bit of a blast to set me up for the day. I really can confirm that the steering does feel lighter, feels fabulous.
