Default Vibration in the Rear

Alright guys im in much needed help with this situation that im getting annoyed with. I have over 100K on my S, and I noticed some rear vibrating out of the rear about a year ago, now its gettting much worse. Keeping in mind i have an Eibach Pro Kit on the car, and as of this morning got the newer axles put in, and still have a vibrating issue. People keep talking about spacers and how that might clear up the issue. Can someone please help me with this, because frankily like i said its annoying to have to baby, that beast. Thanks for any help

If you have changed the axles, spacers wont do anything for you. Maybe you have a bent wheel, a flat spotted tire, or just need balance and alignment.

Swap the axle cups on the diff. Left to right, right to left. The pitting that vtec4life is referring to doesn't happen on the axles. It happens on the insides of the cups. Swap them and you should be good for another 100k miles!
