    Shipping tires

    Yes it does, I deliver Parcel Post to the USPS everyday. It just travels on a FedEx truck now and not a USPS truck to get across the country. Amazon uses it, its the slowest shipping method buts it's also free. (most of the time)

    Side "pitching" sudden increase?

    I had the exact same problem a few years ago, it was the bushings on the anti sway bars on the rear axle. Unbolt the rear anti sway bar, drive it, does it act the same? Worse? Better? You can unbolt it from the suspension, leave it hang and drive around town to test this.
