Default Shaking in the wheel help its pissin me off!

Im thinking its an alignment......i have pretty worn tires in the rear that were just switched from the front at the shop...(rotation) now i got my fresh rears on the front end. I figured that would calm the wheel shake im having. guess again......Everything is gravy till bout eighty then the wheel begins to shake...it only gets worse if i try to go faster...holla in the thread if u figure what it might be.

It may be your wheel weights.... You prolly didnt notice it originaly cuz it was in the rear end. It may be your suspension though... could be due to a bad install... actually it could be a myriad of things.

Did you have the tires balanced when they rotated them?
My Monte was doing the same thing after new tires were put on (the shop didn't balance correctly)...I actually had to have them balanced again by the dealer,no probelms since then.Probably the cheapest place to start for you right now.

Sounds like a balance problem.
warped rotors are'nt gonna vibrate the car unless you're braking.

Yes they will. Depending on how badly they are warped.

You're jacking your own thread? Get your car balanced or make a new thread or both.
If your brakes were warped that bad or at all, you would feel the brakes pulse both your brakes and your car while braking at low or high speed.

No.
The rotor only makes contact during braking, you may be thinking off a bad hub assembley.
The whell bolts onto the studs on the wheel hub, rotor warparge will only be felt during braking.
