I don't think wheel RPM is fast enough to give what would normally be called
vibration. It would be more of a thump or shake.  I would look at tailshaft
housing bushing or less likely the U joints or pinion bearing in the rear
end. Just grab it with the car in neutral and see if you can shake it
sideways.  Don't get run over of course. -- Bill --
I just changed wheels and tires and am not sure if this is  related....in 
high gear at 1,500 rpm's (about 60 mph with 5 speed) I get a  vibration that
lasts about 1-2 seconds and then goes away.  4 or 5 seconds  later it comes
back 
and constantly repeats this cycle.  With that time  sequence I don't see how
it 
can be engine or drivetrain related.  It seems  it must have something to do
with wheel balance.    Any  ideas?
