I know the ride won't be as smooth as it was but does it get better when it breaks in.

You should take it into the shop for a wheel alignment.

Did you have the high speed balance done when the tires were mounted? Also have the front end checked and do the alignment. The cost of an alignment alone will save those expesive tires down the road. PS>>>> There is no "Break in" period on tires.

First, unless you are in Texas, the speed limit is 70 so please do not break the law.
Second, sounds like a bent rim or out of balance problem. Might want the have them rebalanced. If that is not the case, check your front drive train components for wear or breakage. If you can't do this on your own, take it to a shop that you trust.

Okay, by law the tire places have to sell you tires to fit your vehicle. Did they do that? If not, you need to back and have them rectify the matter by putting the correct tires on. This happened to me and I had a blow-out on the 405 heading to LAX airport. Scared me to death. I got free tires and they paid the tow bill. All four of them had to be replaced. Now, if those tires are sufficient, you may have suffer the shimmy-shakes if the look is what you desired.

Make sure the lug nuts have not come loose. This is something you should always check within 50 miles of having new tires put on or even after changing a tire.

This may be a suspension problem or a drive shaft. Have it checked by your closest mechanic. Was your car aligned when you installed the tires? It's not necessarily automatic when you get the tires.

Get the tires balanced, or if they have been, get them rebalanced. If you did not have this problem before, that is where the problem is. A weight may have slipped on just one tire, and that's all it takes to bring on the shakes.

Perhaps the manufacturer had engineers that did some calculations when making the suggested sizes that came on the vehicle.

At the current price of gas, I expect it has something to do with delirium tremens as a withdrawal symptom.
