You're right and we can also make less dangerous ammunition for a safer and 
sweeter society. Currently the cost of replacing lead in the shooting sports 
has caused a 6 fold increase in cost. But lead, god save us all. LOL

It also poisons creeks, streams, lakes, and the ocean, affecting wildlife and
contaminating recreational waters.  I am surprised it took this long to
eliminate considering the toxicity of lead has been known for a very long
time.

There are alternatives to lead, though not as convenient to use.

Mark,

Just read in this morning's L.A. Times that the California environmentalists
have struck again, and no one will be allowed to balance wheel/tire with lead
weights.  No Tire Company, Dealership, Tire sellers, or sales of lead weights
will be allowed.  We all know that lead is poisonous if ingested (don't eat
your weights) but apparently they  can come off the wheel (yes) and traffic
pulverizes them and rain will wash them into our drinking water (???). I don't
think our reservoirs collect street drainage.

/"Kiss a Coyote", and we will also bomb you if you do medical research on
animals, or wear fur, or leather shoes, or keep your pants up with --------"/

Well, I do have different sized tires front and rear.  They  are new and tires
are new.  Transmission and drive shaft are new.  The  thing is, I didn't
notice this before the I put tires on a few days ago.
I think I'll start by having the wheels rebalanced and see if that  helps any.
The strange thing is, it doesn't feel like an imbalance that will  come and go
at different speeds. This comes and goes at a certain  speed.  I don't notice
it at lower speeds.
