My 07 Infiniti m35 sport have a fron vibration when going over 60 miles, I changed the rotors and brake pads, breaded in the new brakes the recommended way and had the brake system bled, still had the issue after getting all that work done... Jacked the front driver wheel only to check for bearing wear moved the wheel up/down and didn't get any play which makes me know that the bearings are good. I moved the wheel from right to left and had about a 1/2 to maybe a 3/4 play which also moved the steering wheel right to left the same distance, when driving the vibration And steering wheel right to left vibration match the 1/2 to maybe 3/4 movement. Any suggestions of what maybe causing this will be greatly appreciated.

Concur with MarkC's assessment...sounds like a balance issue. Might have lost a wheel weight (they are stuck to the wheels via a pretty strong tape but sometimes that tape fails).

I had the exact symptoms with my 08 M45 S, it was a seized left rear caliper.
