I feel your pain. I have had vibrations with my wheels for more than a year. I had them balanced at discount tire, wheel specialists ( very high end wheel shop ), and at the Lexus dealership. In the end the balance jobs were not the issue in my case, it was the wheels. Lexus seemed a little hesitant to balance my wheels but did it for me. The next dealership I had give it a try sent the wheels to wheel specialists because they are known to be the best in AZ. I wish you luck with it. I know first hand it frustrating. I currently have the stocks on the car because the vibration was driving me nuts. All I drive is highway so the entire time I am between 70 and 80 mph. Unfortunatley for me that is the sweet spot for my vibration

This process even takes care of minor wheel or tire structural issues that cause vibration.. seek out a place in AZ that does this..my Vossens didn't require additional balance finishing and the tech did a great job balancing them on the Road Force first..if you have a minor wheel or tire issue like a bend or high spot..this can help eliminate that
