High-speed vibration - 500SL

My newly aquired 1990 500SL (78,000 miles) has had several re-balancings of the wheels in attempting to quiet the ride. At speeds over 70 mph, I continue to get a vibration. Is there anything else besides balance to consider? Or, is it possible to have tires & wheels which cannot be perfectly balanced? The wheels are NOT original equipment, but appear to be MB wheels of newer style, ie 92-94 model year (Identical in appearance to those on my wife's 95 C class.
