Default Is 250 awd vibration after spring/struts install

Please someone help, if anyone knows what this can be, would be great if you can let me know, i have an 09 is 250 AWD, this weekend i installed H&R springs with KYB new struts, the car vibrates like crazy, i did an alignment and balance and the vibration is still there, i cannot go faster then 60, also it seems like it vibrates during the acceleration, once cruising speed is reached, it goes away. Please let me know if anyone have had this problem or knows what/how to fix this.Thank you in advance

It's a hit or miss for AWD owners. Some get it and some don't. I even heard there's some people that get the vibrations on stock springs. I haven't experienced any.

I figured it out, thanks, it was the 19 inch rims i had put on, they are oval and required 8 ounces per rim to balance

Where does it vibrate? Steering wheel? 8 ounces per wheel is quiet a bit of weight...
