welcome to the forum. just cuz your tires are new and balanced doesn't mean they were done right. go back and describe the condition, cuz its the exact description of an out of balance tire. have the balance checked first

Since you moved this post, there's two of the same posts. Just FYI

https://www.cherokeeforum.com/showthread.php?t=10784

In case you delete the other post, here's my response over there:

rotate tires front to back and let us know if it still does it then we can move onto possible mechanical issues.
