A couple other tips are to make sure your new tires are zero balanced. Don't let the shop do a "good enough" type of job but to really spend some time getting it perfect. SPF are sensitive to out of balance tires.

Make sure the steering shaft joint connection bolts are all nice and tight. There are 2 of them if memory serves. I had play in the steering wheel and it went away immediately when tightening up those bolts.

Then there is the obvious normal stuff to check such as worn suspension parts, alignment, tie rod ends, ect.
