What could cause a vibration?

I was just curious of my friend's tire problem.
What could cause a vibration at interstate speeds on a 2004 Buick Lesabre after the tires were balanced and new wheels were put on?

any number of things- a bad tire, bent rim, warped rim, warped brake rotor from the tech getting to aggressive with the impact wrench when putting them back on, bad balance job, loose wheel, bad wheel bearing, bad drive axle...

Yep, pretty much any of those. Jack the car up and spin the wheel/s, see if it has high/low spots, excessive wheel run out. Narrow it down to what it is NOT and it will make it easier to find out what it IS.
