steering wheel shakes
no... but sometimes they may look like they are set properly and when you drive you will see the rim wobble
EDIT AGAIN: Have someone look at every wheel while you drive slowly and see if the wheels wobble

The guy? What guy? The guy on the corner smoking crack or the one at the tire shop trying to sell you tires?

how did you store the tires ?
did you stack them , or set them on the ground.
as in the tread in one spot for a long time,
this can flat spot the tires.
drive the car for 1/2 hour at highway speed to see if it goes away.

thanks.Did they have hubcentric rings?
Maybe you left them on.
call your local nissan or infiniti dealer and find out if they have a wheel balancer made by Hunter " DSP9700"
it can measure radial force vareiation in tires and rims,
this will give a printout of RFV for rim and for tire.
use this info to find failed wheel /tire.
get the print out and return tire for defect proration.

If this is the case it's usually extreme shaking vibration, not subtle.
Sometimes when you take off an aftermarket wheel the hub ring stays on the hub. (& some times not)
Always check!!
