Update: Tire Vibrations CURED!!
As a Valentine's Day gift for my truck, I had my vibrating BFG 295's trued at a shop in San Antonio. All I can say is WOW!!! My truck rides better now, then it did when it was new! All of my vibrations are gone! No more shimmy, no more pull, and finally my steering wheel doesn't shake like a jackhammer anymore!! Watching the tire shaving process is pretty darn cool too! The shop I used was Vibration Correction Systems in San Antonio, TX. Simply put, these guys ROCK! I was in and out in less than an hour, and I'm amazed at the difference! From now on, any new tires I get, I'm going to VCS to get them trued! I love the way my truck drives again!! 
P.S. - JetJock16, thanks for the recommendation to VCS!

Thats great - I bought a set of off brand 285's have had them back to the shop 3 times and they still can't get it right.
They have rotated, balanced, seperated all the tires , measured the rims, put the tires with specific rims, index them and at 42 to 47 mph it is vibration city...
It takes several hours each time and I just don't have the extra time to fool with it...
I have about 2500 miles on the tires now and I get more ticked everytime I ride in it. The original riade was great now this
I need to find the time to go chat with them about it again.
