Default Steering Wheel shaking at 75 and up

However, this just started recently. I swapped rims the other day but then however i changed my mind, so i swaped back to my original rims. At speeds of 75mph and up, it justs starts to vibrate. The faster i go, the more vibration. This is definately not my rotors. its been pulling to the right before this also.

Can we narrow it down more
-alignment
-unbalanced tires
-maybe broken lsd?
-shocks are messed up?
-axles ( i know my cv boots are ripped) but i dont know why this will cause shaking?

unbalanced wheel or alignment....

when i bought my wheels, two came with 205/50/15's and two came with 195/50/15's....

when i ran the 205s in the front there were no high speed (70-80) vibration.

but when i switched the two rears (195) with the fronts. its starting to vibrate during 75-80mph....so im just guessing the wheels are not balanced correctly.

i've never had an alignment as of yet, but everytime my steering wheel is shaking, its usually the balancing of the wheels.

go get your car aligned and from there you will be able to see if that is the problem. it could also have something to do with uneven tirewear.
