Strange Vibration at 35mph on smooth road?

ok, 2005 Civic 4-door, i have had plenty of trouble getting tires for it that are "Round Enough"... Yokohamas do the trick, but now when im just cruizing at 35mph, Sometimes it will give this quick vibration like the lugs came loose! doesnt do it over bumps, or rough roads, or at any speed exept 35 so far.. anyone have any idea?

bad wheel balance or unevenly worn tires or loose lug nuts.

Wheel balance, Alignment, Bearing, loose lugnuts, and loose caliper bolts could all cause vibrations

Bad bearings or wheel imbalance seems to be the most likely candidates.
