mother'f'in vibrations..........

[amalventano at sc.rr.com (Allyn)]

josh, i drove your car last week (for a half hour, by myself, w00t!!!). my
guesses:

bent inner lip of either front wheel
balance (tell them to check it again)
wheels not mounted centered (hubcentric rings?)
possible outer cv on either half shaft

also, it seemed to be coming from front right

dont worry though, the rieger is currently just as bad as yours, so dont
feel left out.
