The only way to find it is on the rack, Get it off the ground and remove the rims, have some one check for round out.

Added to the checklist. How long does this take approx. I want to schedule enough time to have ALL of it checked at one time if possible.

1. the rear facing of the wheel was not flat so when it was mounted it didn't fit exactly flush against the lugs, and the increase in speed caused the problem to worsen.
2. because it took 6 months to figure out, the vibration had caused the front hubs to become out of round so to speak and the front hubs had to be replaced.
Hope this helps. John
I currently have 35 x 13.5 x 20 on my truck and I have exactly no vibration at all. Gear wheels and Nitto Terra Grapplers.

Did they ever check the wheels on a machine?

Tires on other wheels? no. I haven't. But we ran the wheels on GTAs car and they shook his car. Which is the anomily in this whole thing. I may be chasing a Leperechaun so to speak.
