Check your air pressure in the rear tires.
Use a low pressure tire gauge that goes from 0~15 psi. They need to be as exactly the same as possible.
For high speed hard pack I run 7 psi all around, it makes sliding easier with the stock tires as they have some serious hook. Also low pressure can deform the tire slightly under power, a soft tire will move around.
Make sure both tires are seated completely on the rims.
Look for rocks in the tread.
Make sure the carrier bolts are tight.
Make sure the rear axle is properly aligned.
Make sure the axle nuts are tight.
Check the axle bearings for play.
Any of these conditions could cause an imbalance which would translate in to a viabration or wobble
That's all I can think of right now.

i do have a rear flat tire but i put slime in it. still goes flat but im pretty sure the tires not the problem its either the the carrier bolts arent tight. the rear axle isnt properly aligned or the axle nuts arent tight. it might be the axle bearing but there isnt any play. ive only had it for a month but ride hard
