New tires (Yokohama S.drive), balance, rotate, balance and still there .. it has to be something other than balance...
Struts ?

Darryl, Is the shake from the front (steering wheel)or the rear (seat shake)? These cars are very sensitive to tire imbalance. They should be two-plane balanced, that is weights on the inside and outside. Unless there is a serious front end issue (like parts ready to fall off), that should never cause a vibration. I've also found that some front end vibration on our cars can be fixed with an adustment to the tire pressure.
