Default Need Help! Car Rattles @ 60MPH

Hey wassup guys, i just picked up a 99 Ej8 a month ago and it came with Skunk 2 Coilovers i know it bounces alot but as of today when i was driving on the highway doing about 60pmh the car started to bounce harder and rattle like crazy! it felt like one of my wheels are loose, so i pulled over and checked all 4 wheels and they are fine? its comming from my front passenger side. When i drive on the street, there's no problem. Can anyone point out the situation? is my shock broken or something? lemme know, thanks

Does it have aftermarket rims? If so get them balanced if it wasn't already. That would be my first guess.

If you retorque the wheels and it still does it, then I would suggest an alignment. Ball joints? Tie rods?

You are probably in desperate need of an alignment. Does it pull at all?
