Inner drivers would be my guess.

Tire related problems are almost always detectable as a function of speed, not load.
I honestly don't remember how much work it is to replace the inner drivers, but I don't remember it being that cheap. Sometimes you can get away with used ones, as the 9000 version is noticeably longer lived than the 900.
However, if it IS inner drivers, you also should be able to notice it at lower speeds, when you are accelerating up hills. The steeper the hill or harder the acceleration, the worse it should be.
If you don't get vibration at these times, you've got me stumped. Anything that's a result of suspension issues (loose bolts, bad joints, worn bushings, etc..) should manifest itself at all speeds.
Good luck!
