    Where does the vibration come from? Wheels? front, middle or rear of car?

    Front Wishbone bushes

    You could also have some debris on one of your wheel hubs.... take the wheels off and give em a good wire-brushing so they mount good and flush.

    still check the bushes out as they can wear quickly if they was cheap wishbones or bushes
