Steering wheel vibration

Hey guys, i have this vibration while driving 60mph and up with my new wheels, but when i have tried to put original wheels back on and drive the same speed the vibration is gone. So i did re-balancing on new wheels and still the vibration persist... Could this be anything with suspension?

no - its balance... I had better luck balancing them myself than 3 trips to the tire shop.
It is also possible that the rims are bent or something causing issues - or flat spots on the tires from sitting overnight.

well rims are not bent i have checked, next what i will do is have the tires re-mounted and re-balancing again. and they were never flat overnight.

Do your new wheels require hubcentric rings? Are they installed?
