John,
Fit narrower tyres. Original size was 590/ 15 or when you like radials 165 / 80 
- 15.

John,

Are you finding it difficult to turn the steering wheel while your BJ8 is 
stopped? If so, whenever possible avoid turning the wheel unless moving. A 
moving Healey, albeit rather slowly, is always much easier to turn than one 
fully stopped.

In our modern cars we spin the wheel with one finger while standing still and 
we may forget how much work the power steering unit does for us.
