Steering Wheel/ Handling Not Tight ? Advice

530i 2018 with 25k miles I realized the steering wheel more loose vs tighter (loaner I just had 530i with 500 miles ) like its crispy tight doesn't require a lot of moving of steering wheel to turn vs mine which is looser ?

Just changed my tires to same exact tires and still doesnt feel as tight as the loaner i drove

Yes pressure is and yes the loaner i drove same model with same rims and tires.
Also i did the allinment with the tires all
At bmw dealer.

What could it be. Nothing seems broken so im
Confused why the 530 loaner and all loners have a tight turn/grip feeling when turning and steering vs mine

What year loaner?

I had a 2019 530e as a loaner and felt the steering was tighter than my 2017 530i Msport. I just assumed I was feeling the extra 500lbs of the e over the i. I checked the vin of the loaner to see how the specs compared to mine and the only differences were that mine had 704 suspension and summer tires while loaner had base suspension and no-season tires

Not sure what "sport not m" means but maybe you should inquire about buying the loaner. Good luck.
