Nitto tire issue

2000 excursion 7.3 4x4, when i purchased it had nitto terra grappler 295/75/16, all i did was replace 2 rear tires with the exact same and now this thing is all over the road, any similar experiences or suggestions, tires came from america's tire so my plan is to try another brand. rear tires are now at 55psi per door tag, ATC put them at 45 psi, tires have about 700 miles on them

Try swapping the new ones to the front, some new tires do feel a bit squirmy until they get seasoned a bit from a few heat cycles. I had a similar experience on my old Chevy truck with some new Falken tires, on the rear they were very squirmy, swapped up front drove fine, after a few thousand miles rotated them back to the rear and they were perfectly fine. Nittos are very good tires.
