Default Rough riding Santa Fe Sport

Hi all,I have a 2013 Santa Fe sport which was extremely harsh over just about any bump or imperfection in the road, I Just installed new Pirelli Scorpion @ tires which made the ride 1000% better but it still seems as if something else is not quite right. The car has 38k on the odometer. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

I am not sure of just what type tire the Scorpion is, but if it is a :"Low Profile" tire they can be great for cornering at high speeds ,but leave a lot to be desired as far as ride softness is concerned. Low profile tires resemble squatty looking tires (not much tire between the rim and the road) and are not necessarily made to provide a soft ride.

The new Pirellis are OEM spec tires and highly rated. They also improved the ride dramatically. Maybe either the shocks are a problem or there are some worn bushings somewhere, Not normally something I would consider with a low mileage car.
