Default new rims and bad balance?

I recently had TSW thruxtons put on my 04. I drove it to work the next day and boy was the balancing off, at 65-70 it shook like mad. I brought it back and left it most of the day so they could take their time this time, and do it right.

Well its better but I swear the whole car seems to still shudder at 65+mph. Im supposed to bring it back in for a re tourque but it seems like something is still off. How hard is it to balance new rims? I asked them if the alingment might be off now and they said no (they did install spacers)

Any suggestions? Im getting the vibe that I'm "that" pain in the *** customer but I just want it done right for all the money I threw their way

BTW the same shop aligned all 4 last summer, it's town fair tire and they have several shops out this way
