Sway problem....
I can't understand why but I now have a sway problem. I had the original Firestone tires on the X and replaced them with Dunlop Rover RVXT 265/75/16 E ply. I did not have a problem with the old tires, but with the new ones I do. I have the tires aired to 80 psi and still have the sway. I could understand if I had the problem from the start, but this happened after the I put new tires on the X. I do not have a sway bar in the back. I tow a 33' (7000#) camper once or twice a month. The hitch has dual cam anti-sway control and wieght distro. The only thing the tire company will do is check the alignment and give credit towards a new set of Michelins at $50 more a tire.Any ideas would be great.

RE: Sway problem
It feels like the back of the X goes side to side. It is noticeable when changing lanes on the interstate, but you really notice it with the camper hooked up. It just raises the "pucker factor" a little when you are having to constantly correct the steering. But the most aggrevaiting part is that it started after I replace almost worn out tires with new tires of a different brand.
