check your rims sometimes when they get balanced the weights might fall off
i bought new 17in rims and at about 55 the car would shake like crazy found out the wheels were aligh. wrong,(after paying 100 bucks to get them aligh.) weights were placed on the outside of the rim not on the inside. got it fixed and the car runs mint
