I'd check the air bag pressure and probably reduce each of them to 20-40 lbs. My guess is the tire dealer "helped" you and added a lot of air to the air bags.

The other thing to check is whether the new tires have the same load rating that the previous tires did. Range E is a range and the tire stiffness and load rating could be quite a bit less.
