i just got two new front tires and they got balanced. i think the two front rims may be bent from hitting a curb a long time ago,but im not sure,im not 2 worried about it because im getting new rims eventually

I'd do these 2 things:
1. Have the tires balanced and the rims checked for an out of round condition;
2. Get an aluminum driveshaft from an LS1 car, get the big 3" one. That (and new u-joints) took care of my shimmy in my RS. Check Ebay for them, there's always 3 or 4 on there.

These guys are right. A shking in the your car apparent at 65 and not earlier is a balance/rim problem. When you got your tires on and your wheels balanced they should have told you if your rims were bent. I had worked in tires from 16yrs to 20 years. It is very easy to see a bend. Go back to tire place and complain
