Could be something wrong with the tire, have a tire shop do a road force test on the tires.

its on and off vibration on steering, also notice that when it happen i can feel shake on the body as well but minimal, but still annoying especially with this type of vehicle that we all assume that the design is way better than ordinary car...that last more or hold its mechanical parts longer

Have you checked alignment? What about toe-in?

balance is off unless you have some trashed bushings only on one side...(unlikely to cause it only at 70+ mph)

Money goes to the balancing.

ok here is what i did, have my wheels road force and everything is dead rock as in zero and straight , and tried 2 other brand of set of tires.coz

here is the story went back to Di$count Tir3 and told them that still have Vibration on steering wheel so they check and told me maybe your tire something got to do with it, ok bought 2 front paid 341 for yokohamas, test it and back in hour and same issue and guy told me , let me try one more time with the bridgstone smooter tire that normally come out with lexus cars , i was ok sure but i wont pay for that, and he says let me know how was it and if same definitely not the wheel problem, and will refund your full money for the tire you bought to us, very very nice to me and customer service is Amen... good people but ....

im stuck with vibration : took off the wheel and brakes turn the hub its kinda heavy not really smooth but never tried it b4 so it maybe just the way it is...

as far as alignment im going to do again since i have full lifetime alignment on xpre$$ Tir3 ...worth of money in there...let you guys know for update..

oh yea I bought a set of brembo and will only put the front for now let see if helps the issue since my rotors are bad , (warped ) but i dont think its the rotor issue... thank you guys for early responses.
