Default commander II

Needed a new set of tires for my 2018 ultra classic so I put on a set of com II. Have had nothing but problems with them, vibration when leaning into turns (right or left doesn't matter) feeling it my grips. Heading straight on the road then the bike jumps from side to side like it is caught in groves. Took the bike back to the dealer to have him rebalance them, though maybe a weight fell off. He said balance was good, he took it for a and said everything was good. Running 40 psi in front and back. Has anyone else had this problem? Do they need to be broken in, I have about 600 miles on them now. Getting ready to go back to OEM Open to suggestions

Commander II ' s I have used for years with NO problems. They always made my bikes better, and are far better than Dunlops. They don't make them anymore though.
Maybe you got factory rejects?
Out of date?
Distorted from storage?
Maybe China knock offs?
