Strange problem. I have terrible roads where I live with lots of potholes. I've lived in dozens of cities in 6 states and these roads are the worst. My alignment and balance after 15,000 miles is still spot-on. This is the most stable, tightest steering car I've ever owned.
SO with that in, mind, I'm not inclined to blame the car itself, rather somethign unique ot your situation.
Try rotating the tires. Maybe one of the tires in the front has a flat spot.
Usually alaignment problems and balancing problems have isolated symptoms. A shaking/vibration is usually a tire balance problem. While alignment usually only causes excessive tire where, a loose feeling in the steering, or pulling to one side on a straight road.

Thanx for the tips.
Funny thing before I put my 18" on, the stock wheels were also shaking bad after 18,000 miles. The balancing only last me 2 days. The dealer say don't find nothing wrong. Well I 'll try what u told me.

See if you can find a place with a Hunter GSP9700 balancing machine. That presses the tire agains a drum while it's spinning for the balancing. It can measure the varying road-force, so it can tell if the carcass of the tire is messed up. You can't measure that when the tire's just spinning in the air.
