Default vibration at 70 mph and beyond

I have a 1995 Acura Integra LS that vibrates when I go pass 70 mph. The wheel starts to shake slightly but constantly. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I have noticed that the front tires have different tread patterns. I also have a huge dent on my passenger side fender. Could these be causing it or does the car need to be aligned? I would search for some clues, but for some reason, it's not working right now.

whees/tires need to be balanced. or a tie rod is going bad causing slight movement side to side of the tire.

since you got hit.. they might of hit the tire/rim so it could cause some tread ware. also get an alignment for that

Yeah, I was thinking of something along that line. It just confused me because everything is smooth until I hit that 70mph mark.

how are your rims? My car did this when I put a small dent on one of my old 17s.

Get your tires balanced and then get it aligned..

Shaking probably becuase of the tires being off balance..Uneven tread wear probably from misalignment.
