tire thread OR the balance is off...believe it or not it can still be off even though they balanced them...happens to me all the time...they balance my rims like they do smaller wheels stacking the weights on each other...I have to specifically tell them to space the weights in a cross pattern (top/bottom/left/right like a cross) or in a 3-pt triangle...then and ONLY then is there no prob with shaking...same with my wife's Altima on 22's

Check the wheel lugs for proper tightening. Otherwise have all wheels balanced again at another shop.

295s, were your old tires factory 265s? That much size change it may just be that you need to drive a bit for the PCM to catch up.

Shaking can come from improper balancing, out of round tires, bent rims, incorrectly mounted & torqued wheel assemblies, defective tires (belt issues) just to name a few.

If they are name brand tires the manufacturer will stand behind their product, if they are the "one hung lo - el cheapo crap" you get what you paid for.
