Default Whats the Problem? Front end?

First off, Whats Up Everyone. This is my first post. I have a 95 civic DX coupe thats automatic. OK...When the transmission shifts hard(when im getting on it) the front end of the car literally moves in a circular motion towards the right and then back. Only when it shifts. What the hell? LOL.
Next problem I have is when the car is doing around 30 to 40 mph it has a shimmy and then goes away pass 40 which is( I think)in second gear. When it gets to around 80+mph it makes a noise like maybe some bearings are dry and worn. I cant really explain it. I dont think any of the above is from the transmission. Also I have brand new wheels and tires on the car. (literally a week old) Can someone please help. Thanks alot!!!

Your motor mounts and insulators may be shot.
