Steering vibration (tires are balanced and wheels are not bent)
I'm having an issue with steering wheel vibrating at 60mph +. At 90mph and above the vibration is not very noticeable until turning the wheel then I can feel some. I had the tires balanced and recently swapped a brand new set of tires. Wheels were checked for damages and they are fine. The Tein struts were recently rebuilt, so they are in good shape as well.
What else should I look for then? I had the car on a lift and had a mechanic shaking the front wheels. He didn't notice any play on them.
The other symptoms I noticed are creaking sound from the suspension when braking and turning at low speed and when the hitting angled driveways. The steering wheel also jerks left and right when hitting bumps at lower speed.

Im having the same problem. Exept mine doesnt stop til im under 65mph. Reason being our rotors are warped so we have 2 options, turn the rotors or buy new ones; which i am doing in the next week or so.. im purchasing centric premiums. Their oem replacements and the price is reasonable. Il let u know if it solves the problem for me wen i get them.

May want to look at the wheel bearings or check to make sure that no part of the suspension is tweaked. You should also look at where they placed the weights to balance the wheel sometimes where they are placed can cause a vibration at speed. If you have done all the above and it still does it make sure the tires don't have a shifted belt....
Good luck....

Is there any noise coming from a side when your turning? I have the same problem but i KNOW its my front wheel bearing. I can hear it more as i turn left because it is the front right bearing
