Ok this has been happening for awhile. When I get on the highway once I hit 80mph my steering wheel starts to shake, it cant be stopped by holding it tightly either. Thats the only problem though, just the shake. I can let go of the wheel and the car goes straight...it just shakes a lot. Problem?

this happened when i first got the car. it was just a matter of putting some air in the tires, then it was perfectly fine. i doubt thats your problem but you might as well check anyway before you pay money for anything else
but yeah if you have aftermarket wheels and/or lowered suspension and never got them balanced or had an alighnment then thats definitely the problem. although when places put new tires on they balance them at the same time, its usually just a given. -------------------- |
