I agree. If it still doesn't help, go to a tire store and have them do it. You'll get a better balance out of it.

You can also ask them to spin just the wheel (without the tire on it), to verify that it is still true.

^^^^ Had a similiar problem on my cummins, bent wheel but would balance up with the tire on and would vibrate. remove tire and make sure wheel isn't bent
