I swapped the eom size Michelin tires for Goodyear plus zero 25570r16 Wrangler RT/S tires. I am experiencing severe vibration from the wheels and they were just balanced. The vibr comes at about 50mph and increases w/speed increase. Would the plus size have anything to do w/this or is it just the Goodyear tires? Any help appreciated. No vibration until I switched to the new tires?

Welcome to this forum! I've moved your thread into the tires & wheels section. Rotate the tires, and see if there is still an issue with vibration.

You could also check the tire-pressure.
Nowadays here in Europe tire-specialists and garages often put the pressure standand on maximum pressure of the tire, wich can give vibrations too.
Could also be that the pressure is to low, that also can give vibrations.
You can check it with my Excell-spreadsheet.
