Not saying that has a damn thing to do with the vibration you’re dealing with, but it does explain what you saw when you swapped front for rear.

This is actually super helpful. I was considering getting new tires anyway, just to rule them out as the cause of the vibration ( I think they're cheap ones ). I'll plan to get correctly sized tires and see if that changes anything, regardless, I'm sure it isn't helping the car with the current ones on it.
Thanks again for spotting that. It has had 2 alignments, and 2 wheel balances, both at different places, and nobody noticed.
