Default Vibration Question

Had my car in for service. Now I have noticed a vibration that starts at about 55mph and makes the car wiggle slightly and the steering wheel shake quite a bit. Driving it is irritating at times. Took it back and dealership said it is the tires. Could the driveshaft have been flipped or do I need to have the tires rebalanced (and maybe driveshaft too). Thanks in advance.

If you just had the tires rotated or balanced, that is most likely the problem. If you notice shaking in the steering wheel then the front tires are unbalanced...if you notice it in your seat, then its most likely the rear. Take the car back and have them re-balance the tires. Tire vibrations occur just like you described - 55-65mph.
