Default Lack of Power Steering

Hi. I have a Hummer H2 SUT 2005. Sometimes when pulling out of garage or in or out of parking space the steering gets so heavy you can hardly turn the wheel. I'm quite a strong guy and its hard enough for me ! Had it in the dealers and they said that if you have anything other than the stock wheel and tire combination, this can happen. I have 22's on it but with the low profile tires the overall circumference is actually smaller than stock. Doesn't seem right to me. Any ideas ?
Thanks

You can get a heavier duty power steering pump that should take care of the problem.

Read the first sentence of your reply and said what this guys trying to take me out what did I do LOL

but yeah I did that before by touching the Distributor pulling the wire off when a car was running and that woke me up, I don’t touch anything related to wires, spark plugs or Distributor while the engine is running. I learned my lesson.

Back to my issue I changed both cat converters, I change spark plugs, wires, I clean mass of air flow and throttle intake. I also change the The gas filter. Which was a nightmare it’s in front of the gas tank and over a steel support bar, it was a nightmare getting too.

My average miles per gallon is 4.0 that’s horrible my friend has And Escalade with the same engine his amg is 13.0, but thanks for your input and any additional information will be helpful.

Thanks
JB
