Your brake rotors need a bit of machining....and you might check the wheel bearings for looseness as that amount of vibration tends to loosen things-

If you're pumping up tires, don't exceed the max pressure rating of the tire. You could try rotating the tires. If it still vibrates, it's not the tires. -- I don't see how tread depths would cause a vibration. All tires start out with full treads and wear down to the bars without throwing out vibrations.
