Anything else seems to be an exercise! 
My two cents, worth the price paid!

Yeah I answered it up there. In a nutshell: It does shake between 50-53 mph. 2 month old tires, been balanced 3 times. Mechanic blames excessive runout, tire shop says he is wrong so wont swap them out for more.
Tried some old tires and got the same feeling at the same rpm but different mph since the tires were smaller. So thinking it was rpm related as opposed to speed, I went into that rpm range while in 2nd gear and it doesn't shake. Thats when I tried without tires and found it shakes even worse without tires.
