Are you sure all the weights for balancing are still on all the wheels? They can fall off.

You must have been hitting potholes or driving up high kerbs too much for them to go out of shape. Make sure the tyres are properly inflated, so the tyre takes most of the impact and not the alloy.

Alloys don't just go out of shape on their own.

I think you need to bring it to a garage for them to properly diagnose it. Otherwise, you could end up buying more parts without fixing the problem. Its wasting money.

That’s my suggestion.

A friends car had a vibration and was tearing his hair out trying to find the cause. He drove round to my house and as we walked to the car I noticed a bulge on the inside wall of the rear tyre. It was just lucky the way the car was parked that I noticed it. He bought a new tyre and the vibration disappeared.

It may not help you in the case, but may help someone else.
