Vibration at 110 km/h (70 mph), wheels changed and balanced

To the estimed users of this message board.
I have a Saab 900S 1995, 2.3
I have a problem of vibration at 110-130 km/h ( 70-85 mph).
The vibration is mainly in the steering wheel, but also in the whole body of the car and can clearly be felt by the passsenger also.
The vibration can be felt in constant speed driving, but especially when accelerating.
It started a year ago with the car just beeing very sensitive to good balancing of the tires, but now balancing do not solve the problem.
I tried the following to fix it,
1. balanced the tires
2. Changed to new Nokian tires and got them additionnally balanced on the car by a socalled "spinner" but got vibration at 160 km/h (100mph)in the car body, not the steering wheel. Finally the dealer changed the tires because an inspection showed they was not round by some 2-4mm.
3. Changed Nokia tires to Continental, balanced on spinner again (wheel rotates on car ). Got vibration at 110 km/h (70mph)
4. Changed complete wheels and tires to my used Kleber Krisalp winter tires and did no balancing at all, still vibration at 110 km/h (70mph).
It seems that all the balancing and tires shifting is just not the solution.
Do you dear reader have the solution?
Best Regards
