sway

When I towed my TT this weekend with My X I was surprised by the sway I seemed to be experiencing. I've towed the same rig a couple of years ago aand don't remember this. The only difference I know of is the tires. I had Firestone R4S before and now I have Uniroyal Liberator A/T. They are the correct size and fully aired up. I have a sway bar but it seems almost like it's not there.

Re: sway

My similar problem was going from E rated 10 ply 265's (stock) to D rated 8 ply 285's. We were on a road trip. As soon as we hit the highway, my wife wanted out until I went back and traded back to the 265's. Literally chasing the lines left/right...
UPDATE: I just found a recall on your A/T'S:
