Vibration question
On the way back from Newark airport last week, I hit a pothole on the NJ Turnpike at speed (probably about 70mph). I have no idea how big the pothole was as it was nightime and the truck in front of me obscured my view.
N-E-way, now I notice a slight vibration in my steering wheel between 40-50mph and and a very faint vibration between 75-80mph.
Any ideas as to what this could be? I am assuming I lost a weight or something, but I shudder to think that I possibly bent my rim - although my rims look fine from the outside.
I'd like to get your thoughts before I take it in to get looked at.
Thanks in advance for the advice...

That's what I'm afraid of - the roads in NY/NJ area.
I'm getting 18" too (love your wheels by the way). Could you imagine what that pathole would do to the 19".
I hope your wheel is ok...
