The steering wheel sometimes shakes back and forth about a centimeter but the car still drives straight if i let go. So it can't be the alignment. Smooth roads make it worse and i also feel on and off extra vibration through the floor. The steering wheel shakes the worst between 70-80. 65 and below is not as bad. The guy balancing my wheels said the wheels are not bent or warped and run smooth but he said the tire has a little hop. So i wonder if it's just the tires?
Dude, it's the tires. If they have any kind of hop there not gonna balance right, get a new set of tires.
