Why does my Toyota Camry shake when in gear?

I bought a ’96 Toyota Camry about a month ago. When I first turn the car on and the engine is cold, I can have the car stopped (in gear) and it will not shake. The idle RPMs will be at 1000. After the car has heated up, I notice the idle RPM drop by about 250, and the steering wheel/car begin to rumble and shake.

The tire may be out-of-round, or the tread or the internal belts may have separated from the body of the tire. These types of problems usually cause shaking at lower speeds, around 15 to 20 mph. These defects can happen due to manufacturing problems, but they can also be caused by severe road hazards.
