alignment cause wheel to shake?

I had my wheels and coilovers installed last week. Ever since the wheel shakes at between 45-60mph. I had the wheels balanced at 2 different tire places. Finally one said the tires (Falken FK451's) were not "round". I sent them back and recieved 2 new ones. It is better now but still shakes after yet another balance. I did notice my wheel pulls to the right when I let go. Could an alignment alleviate my shaking issues? What else might be causing this?
Thanks

My old W209 shook terribly because of a pot hole. The inside of the wheel was damaged and unfixable and would shake the car at speeds of 60mph+. At 50 or less, the shaking was less noticable. Maybe check the inside of your wheels for damage?
