Default Driveshafts / Axles - OEM, DSS or Insane ?

Hello,

I had problems with vibrations especially at around 200km/h (125mph -- German Autobahn ).

I replaced the inner CV joints with the ones from Ballade Sports. Unfortunately, I have now vibrations, if I accelerate at around 70km/h (44mph).
So, either the Ballade parts are not as good as the OEM ones when it comes to vibration or something else is broken...

I am thinking now about replacing the entire driveshaft / axle.
OEM parts in Germany are freakishly expensive e.g.one driveshaft costs 1300 Euro (~1800USD)!!!
I will order the parts from the US anyway. Even with shipping, customs and taxes the parts are cheaper than purchasing them here.

But what should I buy?
OEM, DSS or Insane driveshafts?
My car is not supercharged and not lowered yet. I just want something that works and eliminates the vibrations. Do you guys have any recommendation and first hand experience?

Thank you for your help.

sounds like your problem is not your driveshaft or axles.
