I struggled with it for years! Road force balanced by 2 different shops and they swore it was right.
Finally found the right tech and he found one of my rims was slightly out. I thought the road balance machines should show this but it didn't on my case.
Fat tires on a lightweight car, they seem to be more sensitive and the normal tech thinks its within tolerance!

Had an issue several years age with some Cooper's. Really like Cooper's but three of the four tires were out of round. They balanced ok but shook like hell at 55-65. Finally put a dial indicator on them and found the problem. Just a bad batch from Cooper. Didn't stop me from buying another set for my BDR. They balanced perfect and ride great. Good Luck and Happy New Year!
