Hey guys, being hanging around for awhile. Let because I wasnt driving my car, but my new job requires it. Anyways my car has been vibrating recently. And when I mean vibrate I mean hard. it doesnt really vibrate say up to 40mph but after that it gets worse and worse. I have had a balance and an alignment, so its not those things. My guess was CV joint but I wanted your guys' take on it. THanks

When I bought my car, the previous owner hadn't kept up with tire rotations. This led to cupping wear of the rear tires. When I rotated them to the front because they were worn in a zig zag pattern at certain speeds I would get really bad vibrations. Ultimately I had to scrap the tires and buy new ones. You can check for this by removing your front tire and rolling it on a flat surface. If the wear is even it should roll by itself pretty well. If there is uneven wear then it will wobble and fall over almost immediately. Good luck!
