Perhaps tyres could make some difference but basically I think 'the dance' is a result of several components not adjusted correctly or are worn.
The other day I talked to an experienced tyre/wirewheel expert who told me that wire wheels often needs remounting of the tyres until the rim and tyre becomes a good round 'unit'. He also said that ride height, tyre pressure, wheel balance, toe in/out, steering and joints, bushings as well as a cracked or bent frame all can contribute to the shake. Any of them can be the cause and/or contribute. Also, a low 'tyre' profile actually reduces the stabilizing effect of the camber angle.
In my case (-99 4/4) the rims were badly maintained and a replacement solved the shake problem. Balance looked good but despite spinning and balancing on the car several times the shake was still there. Perhaps rims can become unstable and flex under load...
