Default Vibration at 60mph+

Well i have swirlies that have been in my garage for a couples months and my tires are about 50% tread up front and roughly 30% at back...they will be changed soon. Anyways i got them balanced and alligned since it was way off....anyways driving on the highway at 60 or more my steering wheel starts to virbrate left to right. The faster i go the worse it gets...What could this be? Rotors, tires or....?

Are you sure it isnt the road? Also if it was your rotors it would be when you start braking, mine are doing this, when i go about 60 mph, and i use the brakes, my steering wheel vibrates. Also it may be your brakes are pressing against your rotors, might wanna check your rotors to double check and see if your brakes are messed up or something causing it to hold on to the rotors when you dont press the brakes

usually if car is going over 40+ MPH and vibrating means weights on your rim prolly came off. take your car into a tire shop and check your weights. happened to me quite a few times.

The big question is, does it continue to vibrate when you let off the gas? If yes, it's your axles. If no, it's probably the tires not balanced correctly.

Also, check to see how dirty it is underneath. My friend had a problem with the exact thing and it was due to mud underneath the car and it made the axels shake.

Yes.

But it really just sounds like the tires are not balanced correctly. This might sound stupid but check to make sure all your lugnuts are tight. That could also cause the problem.
