Noisy shuddering at rear end, even at slow speeds

Volkswagen Passat 2007 2.00 ltr saloon s.e.l. 93000 miles
Until four weeks ago, i would have rated my passat as one of the best,then during a mot, i was advised that the front tyres were going to need replacing. I replaced them two weeks ago fitting bridgestone 235 /45 / 17 to replace old michelins. As soon as they were fitted i noticed severe shuddering from the back end, with very uneven running back tyres goodyear 235 /45 /17, which seemed reasonably healthy. After having front tyres balanced for the second time, the problem refused to go away !! yesterday i consulted premier tyres, who said " simple you need new rear tyres !!! they were duly fitted, all the wheels rebalanced, and,guess what, problem is every bit as bad DOES IT SOUND LIKE SAWTOOTH ? if so what can i have done ??

If tires are believed to be good and balanced should rule out bad rim. Depending on milage bad wheel bearing or alignment may be a issue.
