I have had my oem 19s with the sport comps balanced twice now. The second time fixed 90% of my vibration but there is still a touch there around 60mph. I read somewhere before where the dealer Dismounted the tire and rotated it and rebalanced.

Had a mini van that if I put a certain brand of tire on it, it would vibrate like a dog. My wife worked for a local tire company and they finally put a different set of tires on the van and it road like it was on air. They had re-balanced the tires several times and checked alignment and anything else they could think of before they replaced the tires. The company is a major fleet supplier in the area, so they know what they are doing.

If what you mean by "road force balanced" is that they used the Hunter Road Force Touch to balance the tires then its not the tire, that thing is the Camaro of all balancers.

Have the tires checked to make sure one is not out of round. A defective tire won't show up on a standard balancer. You can take it to another shop and have them rebalanced.

Ill add a totally different scenario.....friend of mine has a 2103 challenger r/t. She just had her winter tires taken off and summer installed at the dealer. The car had a vibration going down the road she didnt have before her summers were put on. Back to the dealer 3 times to try to find out what was wrong. Turned out on the 3rd trip back with the car on the hoist the tech noticed 3 bolts the hold the tranny to the motor were sheared off. Fixed the bolt problem which in turn cured the vibration. Ive never heard of that before.

I traded in my 2003 Grand Am because of vibration like this years ago. I got tired of throwing money at the car trying to figure out what was causing the vibration .
