[QUOTE="2slo95fiveoh, post: 473033, member: 8966"] well, in my experience in the automotive field, a highway speed vibration is (most of the time) either wheel imbalance, or warped rotors. I would take it out on the highway, try and get up to around 70mph, (where you should notice a significant vibration) then press on the brake pedal with MILD pressure (don't need to be locking the wheels up on the highway.. haha). If your vibration gets worse/more intense, then you have some warped rotors, regardless of brake pad life. Now if the vibration begins to disipate as your speed slowly decreases, then i would begin to lean more towards a wheel/tire problem. You mentioned you put new wheels/tires on, when you had them balanced, did you buy them as a package deal (already mounted and balanced) or did you have a shop mount them? [/QUOTE]
