High speed vibrations Options

Ok, it looks like you have checked all of the usual suspects out on your car, and you said this was a problem before the aftermarket rims/tires. This leads me to believe it could be another issue, you might have an out of balance axle half shaft, this can be due to normal wear or an accident. I've seen this cause difficult to diagnose vibration in the past, usually with this problem you will feel the vibration more on one side than the other, so try riding as a passenger in your car as well. The only way to know for sure is to swap in another axle and see if this corrects the problem.

On a small car like the Celica, it's amazing how easily vibration becomes a factor.


Good luck

Most all of the vibrations seem to transfer through to the steering wheel. I still think I get a little more vibration than normal on the gas pedal and the resting foot grove near the clutch. However, I must admit, its been ages since I was a passenger in my car and on the freeway. Jamchell, I will give that a try. Thanks for the advice.

I have a very similar issue. I was reccomended to check my CV joints. sounds like im low on power steering fluid but kicks right back in. all of that stuff has 210K on my cars so thats my guess.
