OP indicated he had new tires mounted and balanced twice...You need to do what the factory did, hold the primary driveshaft directly inline with the transmission. They both need to be as close to level as possible. Then your pinion angle should not exceed 1* degree below what the primary shaft angle is. The 1* degree will rotate to zero under load and whatever the angle of the secondary driveshaft is, it should not exceed 3* degrees...If your experiencing the vibration sitting still in park or neutral, disregard the above...
