Road Force Balance.. not just a normal balancing machine.. along with an alignment it will help.

Its possible that your wheels might be bent or if snow is getting and sticking to the inside of the rim then that'll cause the shaking as well.

^ there's your problem. No matter how well you put the wheels back on...as I thought when I did mine, you will need a hub ring.

I believe our hub for our cars is 60.1 mm so you'll have to either do a search on your wheels outer size and order you some rings. There is a search function on the website above or you can google your wheels and see if you can find it somewhere. I ordered them for my aftermarket wheels and have no shimmy at all. Anytime you get aftermarket rims....these hubcentric rings are a must.

Make one.. there is a thread which shows how.. its simply a bolt with a nut welded on it. I did this and it was half my problem, a bad balance was the other part of the problem.
