I felt a small vibration in my car but didnt pay attention to it. I later had new brakes put on and a front caliper which they said was bad. I remembered a loud noise in the front driver side wheel and a grabbing around this wheel. It went away so I didnt pay attention.

When the new caliper, along with the brakes were put on the vibration got worse. My tires were going bad so had all 4 replaced and balanced.

Now when I go past 60 MPH everything vibrates. I thought of a motor mount problem . . . Then I thought about a bad wobbling rim.

Any thoughts?
