Good job on relaxing the fork! I do that after every crash at track to make sure there's no pent-up twists!

Yes, vibration in specific range of speeds sounds like wheel balance. With new tyre, you still have to balance. Without balancer, a lot of people just clamp an axle sideways in bench vise and spin wheel. It'll roll back and forth and settle with heavy spot on bottom. Tape weight to opposite side and spin again.
