91 capri base model

I have a 91 capri base model without sway bars. it is starting to sway or float more and more, almost feels like you are in a boat. And it feels like its coming from the rear.
What can it be?

Worn struts, bushings, bearings. Old tires.

Swaybars help keep the car flatter and more stable around corners, but if it feels like boat you have something else going on

I put brand new tires on it. the old ones wore out evenly. I did change the outer bearings as they were bad. Could the inner bearings be causing this?
