Slack steering feel at high speed

Ah summer....but after switching from my trustworthy studded Nokians to a new pair of summer tires (Falken Ziex 205/50 16), I've noticed a disconcerning 'floating' feel at higher speeds. It's fine at the 65 mph range, but higher up it gives a sort of dead and unresponsive feel when driving straight line. Turning into a corner takes up the slack.
Is it my tires, or is that diagnostic of something else I'm missing? I've never had this with my winter tires and prior pair of summer tires.
