Have you tried taking the wheels off and putting them back on with a torque wrench...a lot of times you can take wheels off and on and get different sounds/vibrations each time if you don't torque everything just right.

well who balanced them? someone careless could've halfassed balanced them...not as accurately. also it could be the tire is out of round. tires arent always manufactured perfectly.
what does your alignment look like? if yours is out, that could also cause a shake

Re: (roller3804)
it was balanced by this tire shop i go to. if i had a bad cv joint will it make some kind of sound when i turn the steering wheel to a certain side? because when i turn my wheel to the right it makes this sound.

it will usually make a sound. however, if the inner cv joint goes, it may not make a clicking sound or an irregular noise, and just cause vibration.

i have the same problem, only its on a 04 S2000, drive about 60-and up it starts shaking, put some diff wheels on it and the problem is still there, must be the axles or something else.

FYI, i know i have had a ripped, nearly empty CV boot for quite a while now. it makes no noise. not even when i turn. but it does shake at high speed. look at your axles.
