please help w/vibration problem..
hey all, i was lurking around in this forum for while and unfortunately this is my first post since i have some vibration problem on high speed..
i thought it was my tires, or wheel balancing, but changed 4 new tires and fresh balance, the 50mph-70mph vibration is still there.. i tried putting the gear on neutral when i was going 60mph, the car still vibrates, so its not the engine i guess,..what could be wrong? wheel bearing? is this a common problem?
my car is 2004 e500 4matc

Also Some aftermarket rims are of poor quality
Seen even NEW tires out of round
Any decent Hi Line tire shop should be able to help you find the problem
