tires vibrating

we checked all the rims.all good.there was 3 bad tires brand new.goodrich lt 245/75 16 raised letter.i had them take them off and put on michlin lt tires. my chevy truck ran almost like a caddy home.it was tires. 1 thing i noticed. some of the tires when balance had as much as 4 and 1 half ounces on the rims to balance. the michlins had arounf 1 once on each one. my mechanic noticed that and said maybe that is telling us something. i never saw so many bad tires as there are today. they were lined up at sears returning tires for vibration. the worst ones i heard were goodyear, dunlop, general ,goodrich,.the best michelins, cooper and a lot wanted firestones but no one carried them . it seems that goodyear was the worst i heard from people there.i could not believe that a tire could shake a car at 40 mph so bad.well, maybe this will help others.
