It's driving me crazy to have it drive like this now when it was so perfect before the new tires. Why can't the dealership fix it? For expensive performance tires, it's frustrating to think they are at fault.
Sounds like one of the wheels isn't centered on the hub properly. I would suggest (again) to simply take the wheel off and remount it, making sure you are supporting the wheel when you torque down the lugs *in proper order*.

Before doing this, you can also just check the tire pressures to see if there's any weirdness.
