Usually when that happens that means that the tires are not properly balanced.

Look Guy's he had problems putting it on. Please do not drive until you do two things jack up both wheels in front carefully not on the aluminum oil pan. place two jack stands apply the parking brake. Make sure the wheels turn freely then start the car and put it in gear. With the wheels spinning looks for wobble not bolted on properly or excessive up and down side to side motion in the rim or tire. Second thing is to remove the wobble rim tire assembly take it to a tire shop for additional tire or rim replacement. Could be a bad tire or a rim that center or bolt pattern is not the same as the others. I have even seen defective rims where the bolt center was off by 1/4 inch. You can even put one of the old rims back on to drive over to a tire shop. I use a Hunter GPS 9700 road force tire balance dynamic balance wheels you should insist on dynamic balance/ road force test.

possibilities for vibrating steering:
1. wheel bolts not tight enough, especially on one side.
2. Tyre has broken some inner steel bands. Switching both tires left to right will prove this theory.
3, tire not balanced, but this will only vibrate at higher speeds..40 - 60 mph. The test to prove this, is to put front tires on the back, and back on the front. tighten bolts correctly, drive 60 mph.
4. Your brake rotors are not flat and perfectly straight, and your foot pedal and wheel will vibrate when you apply the brakes.
5. Your INNER driveshaft bearings are worn out, Not the outer CV joints. Vibrations at higher speeds.

If the new wheels are custom, you most likely didn't put hub rings on when you installed them. Most common source of vibration, and cheap to fix with a set of hub rings at $20.

Take your wheels to a tire shop and have them balanced. If you are still having the vibration it could be a tire, or something in the suspention.

Put tires on them! just kidding. If they were balanced and you put them on yourself, you may have misaligned lug, usually caused by not understanding there is a lug tightening sequence. One tire could be out of round. If you bought the wheels used one or more could be bent or warped. If they had tires on them and you bought them used one or more balancing weight may have fallen off.
Hope you find a resolve with the above,Good luck.

Wheel and tire out of balance. Have them balanced by a shop with a balancer.

All tire must be balance after mounting take it to a tire shop that sells the brand name of tire that you mounted and many will balance for free or at a discount either way you must have them balanced.
Good luck

Sounds like your tires aren't balanced....this is why you take it to a professional who has the diagnostic equipment to do the job right.
