97 Alima Deceleration Vibration

Hey Guys, I've searched for this symptom but didnt find anything.

When I accelerate the car feels fine, i get a slight pull to the left but thats alignment.

When i reach about 65 and let up on the gas i get a shake in my steering wheel (righgt and left). It doesnt affect the direction of the vehicle. If i accelerate it goes away?

my Altima turned 90k about two months ago. Any thoughts?

My thoughts:
Alignment?
maybe struts?
bent wheels?

Do the simple thing first. Did you rotate the tires and are they at the correct psi? If you rotate your tires to the back and this shaking goes away your tires are out of balance. All so push on the front hood where eaith tires is at let off, if the car bounces up and down alot you have a bad strut.
Next raise the front of the car and and with the sterring wheel locked, pull and push each tire / wheel side to side if you feel any play then your ball joints are wearing out.


Let me know what you find out
