Checked TP yesterday and it was fine. It does have the sticky weights but there's no evidence that any are missing. Each wheel has an inner and outer weight.

I know the lugs are tight, but I'm not sure if they're the same torque on all 5. Kinda hard to believe that could cause this much vibration though.

Inner CV joint maybe. I think there was a TSB on AP1's with them wearing out. There's a DIY on swapping them side to side for a temp fix.

Luckily I've still got my old tires/wheels so I can eliminate a whole bunch of possibilities by swapping those out.

Inner CV's would most definitely make it ride like that if they are going out.....

What could cause that ? I've had a similar issue but I think mine was due to a thrown weight...however I don't want to rule anything out. Mine drives fine until I hit around 70 mph +

If the vibration started after changed wheels/tires it's the wheels/tires.

If the vibration goes away under decel and reoccurs under accel it's inner CV joints.
