What kind of condition are your tires in? Are they balanced correctly? Is it an up down or side to side movement?

Ok...well..its the same kind of vibration as a warped break, and it comes in one second intervals....like...not fine vibrations...but deep toned vibrations.....I've had my wheels aligned and my tires are new. I'll be switching them soon but..it doesnt feel like it's the tires. more like...the engine acting up. At 65 miles an hour..its fine....just over that seventy mark...

My Sebring did the same thing. I had the wheels balanced and rotated every 5k miles, and it still ocurred. I always thought something was out of balance under the hood. I never could find it either.

you have them aligned, but what about balanced? different things. alignment has to do with keeping the tires straight, and the steering wheel "true" (so the logo is normal). Balance has to do with adding little weights to each wheel so when they spin, there is no wobble.

Check your rims to make sure theres not a slight dent on the rim.. I hit a pothole here in Shithole Pennsylvania and it about ripped off my rim.. Went home and looked, no flat tire or nothing.. Woke up the next morning and it was flat.. I pumped it up and it was okay.. Brought it home pulled the tire off and it was all jacked up.. I beat it out just a bit and had another weight put on.. My car would drive fun up to about the 60-65 mark, then my car would start vibrating like hell.. Once i got to 80 or more it'd calm back down.. It was weird

yes this is exactly what happens...it would vibrate..then calm down..I got an engine tuning...so now the vibration is between 80 and 90. Im puttin on some new rims in a few days....as soon as my lug nuts get here. hehe cant wait. I'll let you guys know how that turns out with the vibrating thing...then we can get this cleared up...hopefully.
