Okay, as a recap - he purchased his first tires on line and had them mounted locally. Already two cooks. Then discount tire sent him a completely different set of a different make and model of tire. They were also mounted and balanced with the same problem. He has stated that he had his tires balanced at is "Indy" and at Discount Tire. His local tire shop didn't sell him the tires, he got them on line.

You need to read the entire posting before telling him what to do. Some have told him to demand new tires - he already got that. Others have told him to have further balancing done - he's done that multiple times with no success.

The only thing that resolved the problem was a tire/wheel change. Like it or not, it has to be the wheels. Find another set of wheels and tires and run them. If that does it you're done. You solved the problem with a wheel change. We can stop bashing Hankook or Yokohamas as both had the same issue. Somehow you revealed a wheel problem when you changed the tires.
