Its prolly the tries out of balance or alignment. But at that speed you can't expect it to be smooth.

Agree on the tires. I know you said you had them checked but most shops do not have a high speed balance machine. Most check them on a low speed balancer which does nothing when you are driving 80+

do your tires look cupped? are they all terrain, mud terrain or what style tire?
if its an agressive tire i wouldnt expect it to be smooth with no vibration.
check your front end parts for wear as well.
