Alignment. If not, I've been told that if your tires on one end have a lot more tred than the tires on the other end, it could cause the problem. Not sure if that helps but hey, i tried.

Well I have one good tire up front and the rest or well on their way to bald. Im thinking its tires, becuase wouldnt a bent rim be noticable even at low speeds too? Im just going to mount my new tires I have sitting at home and see what happens.

Ok so I rotated one side front to back, and evidently no more vibrations through the steering wheel. So that means it has to do with that particular wheel/tire. Maybe its slightly bent, I dont know. But it is fixed.

Yeah im having the same problems, im attributing it to poor mounting and balancing of tires to rims, poor alignment, and some suspension issues im having with my struts.. they are all going south, frst left front, now right rear... odd, but im just expecting the last 2 to go soon
