Whenever I get my car up to speed around 90-100 km/h, I get a really bad vibration back through the steering column and my steering wheel shakes like mad. I only started noticing this after I got my new rims and tires, so I assume it's related. Could I be in need of a wheel alignment? Wheel bearing? MY wheels were bigger than stock, can that have anything to do with it? It's rather annoying I must say. Help!

un-balanced wheels should make some kind of vibration at like 60, from ive known, most shop balance them to be descent at low speeds and bad at high speeds, or vise versa, few around here take the time to be precise. with the brake issue... my car pulls a side when i slow to like 15-20, it doesnt pull at high speeds though, so ive always assumed it was imperfections, or a groove worn in the road along with having wider tires was my problem, is that a brake issue though because its not the same side each time and it doesnt do it everytime, never noticed if its the same intersection or not though, and if it were brake related, what would cause that, a bias to one side??
