As suggested elsewhere, the tire might be out-of-round.
Or, you might have thrown a badly installed weight leaving the shop.
I've had one experience where new tires were mounted and 'balanced.' At
anything above 45mph, the Tiger shook like it was in a paint mixer. Took 'em
back for re-balancing. Turned out the old "100+" WHEELS were somehow so
grossly out of balance that the electronic balancer was completely fooled and
was supplying random readings. For some odd reason, the problem hadn't
manifested itself until I put some decent rubber on the car (Pontenza
RE-71's).
