Anyway, I still wouldn't go through a car wash... hand wash myself only.
Get your tires road force balanced. Its different than just a simple high speed balance

done it, twice. Persists... yes even after all this time from my original post. Just waiting till the day these tires are end of life so I can get a new set of rims & tires.

I hear you shouldn't remove the tires from the rim more than a few times?
