    Default vibration at 50 or better

    I get a vibration at 50 or faster and the faster I go the worse it gets. It's been snowing here in WY for a little and I noticed some nicely packed snow in my rims. Could that be the culprit? Its a bit cold to be climbing around right now but anyone who's had experiance with a vibration at 50 or so I'll take any input. Thanks all...

    Well your first step would be to clean out your wheels. I'm sure they aren't exactly in balance with the snow on them. My second guess would be driveshaft or maybe a transmission/engine mount. Does the vibration get progressively worse as you speed up? Is it more noticeable when you on the throttle? etc.

    it does get worse with excelleration but doesnt change if im WOT or in neutral at any speed above 50. I'll get to cleaning them after school since I don't have time enough at lunch. I'll keep him slow and piss people off I guess.

    Yup... snow in the rims was the culprit. Fixed
