Default Bumpy Ride

I recently put on my summer wheels and tires (Steeda Ultra-Lite II 18x9.5 chrome wheels w/ Nitto NT555R 285/35/18ZR Drag radials), and I've noticed that whenever I reach speeds of over 70mph, it starts to get a mild vibration. Doesn't seem to be isolated to either side or either end, just the entire car up and down slightly. The only thing I can think of is that they may need to be rebalanced? I've had them for 2 years now, don't know what else could be the cause.

the first thing I would do would be to get them balanced. That's usually the case 99% of the time with vibration at high speeds (like on highway). If that's not it, we can then at least get that out of the way.
