Tire marbles

Hi, I have been chasing a wobble on my steering wheel for months now and I think I may have figured it out. After a track day last fall I noticed my steering wheel would shake between 65-75. All suspension is checked and even replaced a control arm a couple weeks ago that had play but I still have the vibration. Can the marbling you see on my front tires be the reason it’s shaking? I checked for a missing wheel weight but all the weights seem to be in place. If the marbling can cause my tires to be out of balance should I do the following:

1) pictured are my front summer wheel and tire set, stock SS 1le wheels.
2) can I mount the 285/30/20 ss 1le front wheels on the back of the car and mount my stock rear SS wheels in the front (275-35-20)?
3) I heard your traction control light can come on and stay on if I do something like this. Will I have to take it to the dealer to get reset or will putting the appropriate tire sizes back on fix it?

The reason I want to do the above is flooring it in first gear took the marbling off the rear so I figured it would do the same for the front tires if I can mount them in the back and mount my stock rear wheels in the front (I have an ss non 1le).
