Default Wheel Shake

I had the same problem with my car. It originally had Cooper's on it and then I changed to Mickey Thompson's SR's , tried 2 different sets , and still had the shake. Chased this problem for 2 years and can't count the number of times it was in a shop for balancing , including Road Force, moving tire around on rim, checking pinion angle, wheel alignments , having rims checked and straightened ( which were New and without defect ),having the car checked and worked on by " suspension experts " , some made it a bit better but overall, could not correct the problem.
Until a buddy let me borrow his 4 Hoosier's to try out . Guess what , no shake, and I took it up to 120mph just to be sure.
I know this is upsetting to many in this community but I went out and bought a set of B.F.Goodrich Radial T/A's and haven't had even a hint of tire/wheel shake since they were put on.
Good Luck.
