  1. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. DArustik was right. I had a slightly bent wheel. It has been repaired - all is well now. Thanks!
  2. Hey folks! I have a question regarding a front-end vibration that I am experiencing. Some quick background info: 1) 2006 GS300 - 17,000 miles 2) Vibration first started at about 10,000 miles. The vibration only occurs briefly when I let off of the gas between 70-75 MPH. Vechicle is smooth as glass when I keep gentle pressure on gas at that speed. 3) Replaced original Dunlop's (those tires were terrible) with Michelin Pilot Exalto's at 15,000 miles. Had front end re-aligned and tires road force balanced at time. Vibration would still occur when I let off of the gas between 70-75 MPH. No vibration if I maintained that speed. 4) Had front end re-aligned and tires road force balanced again. Same result. 5) Took vehicle to local Lexus service shop to diagnose. They are claiming it is the tires (feathering/cupping on inside of tires). I can't feel or see what they are talking about. Does this seem legit? I just find it hard to believe that two uniques sets of tires can show the exact symptoms, especially with the newer Michellin's after driving out of the tire shop. Any suggestions?
