take it to a good tire shop and see if they can test the rims and tires to see if they are high speed balanced. happened to a buddies car where whenever the rim spun faster than average it would shake.

Inspect your drive axles. Worn CV joints will cause vibrations like that.

If you did all that rotation, balancing, and alignment, I'm pretty sure it is not a tire issue. Like Devil said, check your drive axles and CV joints. Most likely your CV joint boot torn and need to replace and re-grease.
