Also I get shaking on the highway. Its not my wheels. Any suggestions? Ball joints are good, inner @outer tie rods are good, struts are good . what could it be?

not side to side, feels like a wheel balancing, the steering wheel shakes

did this start after some new tires/wheels got installed, if so it sounds like they werent ballanced correctly... otherwise, could you post up the speed at which it starts, and the range it is bad for... ie: 45+ or 50-73..

i got a similar problem. mine only happens after 60 mph and gets worse. my tires were balanced but were not the same thread depth can this be my problem?one is about 90% and the other is 80% thread. I thought i would just be pulling to one side a little. i have new shocks/struts, new tc rods, and new out tie rod ends.

try looking at your tires....how are they, are they seperating? externally? internally? check the tread depth of all. make sure they are equal
