i have the same thing...its the wheels not being centered on the hubs...mine started when I got them back from powdercoating...I put them on and I only get a vibration above 70mph and its a pulsating vibration...every 3 seconds it vibrates for a half second then stops, then 3 seconds later again, then stops...

when I put my rotas on the vibration does not come back. I ended up having to sand down the hub on the stock rims cause the powder built up and was not seating correctly on the hub. I think I may have sanded them down too much cause I still get the vibration every once in a while.

easy fix...get some new aftermarket wheels...lol

if you have a buddy with another S, borrow his rims for a day and drive around and see if it fixes it, it should
