Swap over your wheels for another set. Not uncommon for a tyre to do that
Modern wheel balancing is not what it's cracked up to be.

Ahh.you may have lost a wheel weight, or the wheel weight may have shifted.
kerrylee1,

you did all of that to cure a vibration! crazy, like re-piling the house to make the water run the right way in the guttering

I'm assuming this is not a vibration you can feel thru the steering wheel so shift the rear wheels to the front and see if it alters the vibration at all. Do you have any sensation at all about what type of vibration it is! Wheel vibration, driveline vibration, engine vibration!
kerrylee1,

feels like driveline, everything new in front. thanks for input, very frustrating.

They have a bad habit of flogging out driveshaft crosses if you don't grease them regulary.
