Default Sloppy feel on Goodyear f1's ?

Hi all, I have a standard 2.5 WRX Hawkeye 06 plate and have just put 4 brand new Goodyear F1 Assymetrics 215,45 r17 Y . The side walls are really soft and the ride is really floppy at speed ???? I was told that these tyres were the bees knees ! I've got to say I'm disappointed as my originals Brigdestone potenza's felt much more sporty. Any ideas or suggestions or have I just made a massive boo boo as I cannot just go out and buy another set of different tyres !!!

I had this once, i think it's because you need the high load / heavy duty versions, they have stiffer side walls.

Be careful if you have that feeling that the tyre is moving around.
