I've been preaching this one for a while now - the only successfull way I've eliminated shake is to balance the wheels FROM THE STUD HOLES not the centre. Any decent tyre shop will have an adapter plate to do it - thete's quite a few cars now without a centre hole in the wheels so a stud mount is the only way to balance them.
