Question is, would out balanced wheels be a bit shaky in lower speed but more stable in higher speed? Thats what my car is doing by saying more stable means it still shakes but better than low speed lower speed=40mph-50mph higher speed= 60+mph ---

no, normally the higher the speed the worse the shake, you may have a shifted belt. ---

what kind of vehicle? facotry wheels? how old are your shocks? when is the last time the wheels were balanced? it is entirley possible for the wheels to only shake at a certain speed because of a balance issue. shifted belts usually are felt the entire time. bad shocks can also be speed dependant, see this alot on high mileage hondas (200k+) ---

The wheels were balanced at Walmart, I believe they did a crappy job and I hate that place now because the scratched my wheels Can anyone recommend a good place that is relatively cheap? I dont want to spend like 80 plus tax just to balance 4 wheels
