I experienced new tyres that weren't balanced correctly several years ago. The fitter may have made a mistake or possibly forgot to balance the wheels. Take them back, explain the problem and ask that they check. A decent garage would be happy to show you they are balanced on their machine.

I would also suggest wheel balance.  One of the glue on or clip on weights  used to balance the new tyres may have dropped off. 

But as a safety precaution before driving the car again I would also   check the  inner and outer side walls of the tyres for any  bulges  as a result of a manufacturing defect in the tyre structure. Its very unlikely  there will be.
