Ive been having this problem for about a month now the faster i drive the car the worst it gets 04 here 36k miles A do i need an alignment? B is the wheel bearing going out? Im lost any help is appreciated My car is down at the moment do to funds

ok so far things to check are.....

1. wheel weights+check if balance right
2. cv joints inner outer etc...
3. drive shaft bolts
4. check bolts underneath car that i think might be loose including lug nut bolts lol
5. wheel bearing

edit my new wheels are cursed that could be the problem

All of the Above is good my mechanic checked
Drive Shaft might be Bad

 

check your drive shaft bolts. seriously. on a scale from 1 to 10, how harsh is the vibration?

 

i say a good 8 is this a common problem on the s2k? i will check as soon as i get off work Thnx Bro

 

im guessing cv joints are maybe bad but why so soon will check when i get home plus i need an alignment really bad haven't done that since i installed my new tires + my car is down

 

found this on toyo official website

"At high speeds a tire which is not balanced properly can generate severe vibrations. These vibrations can be felt in your steering wheel or even in the seat of your vehicle."

good information to know this might be my problem but im still not sure i honestly doubt its my cv joints but will check them out

 

What tires did you put on the car? Perhaps they are not balanced correctly or a wheel weight has fallen off. Or it is possible that one of the new tires has a defect.

Is the car lowered? If so, it may be possible that you have the inner cv bucket issue.

note this only happens when i drive it fast and the steering wheel sakes a little not like crazy if u know what i mean it sorda feels like my wheels are going to fall off or something at high speeds

 

inner cv bucket issue
i see what u mean by this but my car doesn't make any noises it only vibrates from the rear still good info i guess it doesn't have to make a noise so they could be bad but 36k miles already bad

 

ok heres an update one of the front wheels is missing 2 weights so is one of the back wheels also missing 2 weights im guessing this could be my problem im happy hopefully ill have my car up and running by mon till then ill let u guys know whats going on wish me luck hope is that come to think of it i didn't have this problem right away so im guessing some weights fell along the way which is hard to believe because those suckers are on their haven't driven the car in like two weeks i miss my baby hurts to look at her and not drive her Thnx for all ur help fellas
