The rear tires on my car are wearing badly, when I get to about 60 mph the rear end starts to vibrate could this be caused by alignment bearings or shocks?

The question was cut off can you explain again whats hapening?Is it a LS model saturn?If so and the rear tires are wearing badly then you need a shim kit put in the rear end to drop the rear suspension. You also need the rear camber adjustments elongated to allow additional rear camber adjustment for the revised alingnment specs. Unless you already had that done.
