There should be NO vibration......Take it back and have them rebalance the
tires. Sounds like they had someone who was in a hurry and didn't balance a
tire right or at all.

I haven't tried Graspics, but on any other tire incuding Blizzaks, you only
get vibration when something is off balance. Usually when a weight falls
off, or if you get a buildup of snow, ice, mud, dirt, etc in the wheel.

What experience are you having with wheel balancing- I brought my 300D
in for snow tires and they put 4 Dunlop Graspics on the car. The car,
in nice weather, has Goodyear Triple Treads. When the Goodyears were on
the car, there was absolutely NO vibration in the steering wheel. With
the Graspics, it is notible at 45 MPH and annoying at 60 MPH.
The Goodyears were balanced by the MB dealership and the Graspics by a
tire warehouse.
Anyone had experience with this- the Graspics are snow tires- should I
expect vibration?
Thanks friends.
