If it change it at all then the problem is definitely in the wheels and tires.

not if the universal joints are shot

no did the road force balance dose not solve problem. Tires most likely. Or rack and pinion. I am still trying to resolve this issue. Do not use aftermarket rack and pinion. That will not work OEM only. Good luck finding one.
