[Tigers] Vibration

Mark, you didn't mention whether the vibration was coming from the
steering wheel, floor, or the gear shift. I have experienced this when
running two different size tires front and rear that were not true or
not balanced well, the difference in the circumferences makes the tires
spin at slightly different speeds, so any unbalance will vibrate in and
out of harmony. This can also be true side-to-side, especially if one
tire is worn more than the other.

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?
