Back tire bounce

My back tires will bounce a little at about 45mph now I don't come off the ground but enough to notice do I have some broken cords in them? Tires were on truck when I bought it so I don't know how many miles are on them but still alot of tread left.

when that happened to me it was due to the tires being out of round, from not being rotated, and caused bouncing/vibration even though plenty of tread left.

They are sprung so heavy in the back my buddy was following me down the highway at 75 he could see daylight under the back tires every time a hit a bump... Only 300lbs takes care of it.
