Default New Tires = Sway?

I just replaced all the tires on the rear of my truck. Now when I go into a curve I feel like I am leaning- swaying some. I still have the original tires on the front. The truck is drw and had 65k on it. I've checked the tire pressure and took off the rear tires and put them on again to make sure it was done right. But still feels funny going into curves. Any help would be great!
