The tyre and wheel may be balanced but the hub and brake parts rotate as
well.  There are very few fully dynamic machines left that can test when the
wheel is on an axle as the vibration from the hub etc is normally fairly
neutral.
Check wheel bearings and suspension bushes.
Have a good look and feel
for bulges in the sidewalls and check the tread to see if it kinks sideways.
Have someone drive alongside to look at the suspect wheel and tyre to see if
it is behaving abnormally.
Could it be a driveshaft joint problem you are
putting down to wheel shake?

Best of luck,

Guy R Day
