Recently bought 97 Chevy Tahoe that has 20" wheels. I have never driven a vehicle with custom wheels and tires. The handling is quite different from what I expected. Is this normal for larger wheels and low profile tires.

Yes very common to get a rough ride with low profile tires such as the 20s you have, The normal tires that come stock help absorb a lot of shock acting kind of like an aid to the suspension system, with 20s you dont have that "cushion" like you did with stock tires and rims.
