we need a spell check for posting.


Anyways...


1) Check that your lug nuts are all torqued to 65-75ft-lbs.
2) Make sure you don't have any big nails in your tires.
3) Make sure you still have all weights on your wheels from balancing.
4) Clear any chunks dirt from inside the wheel.

The problem(s) could be:
a) Wheel/tire balance is F'd from losing weights (Very likely)
b) Alignment (possible)
c) you picked up something in your tire that is heavy enough to unbalance the tire.

Ditto what mcdrama said. Most likely a wheel balance issue.

yeah sounds like a wheel balance issue, unless it vibrates when your braking then it sounds like rotors need to be resurfaced or uneven brake pads.
