The tire may have a slipped belt or be REALLY out of balance.

if the belt has broken youll see it soon enough because it will cause extremly uneven and fast wear.

i would go up there and tell them your problem. they will probably charge you for the wheel balncing even if its not the problem because they have to jack your car up, take off the wheel and put it on their machine. you may get out of it though if its not the balancing and you order another tire through them.
