Default vibration please look!

So i have a 92 honda civic hatchback and ive had this vibration that a mechanic told me was due to an inner tie rod. Well i was just looking underneath my hood one day and i noticed that a axle boot was busted, it was the inner cv boot on the intermediate shaft. I bring my car in through service and get both inner tie rods fixed and the axle boot. I asked the mechanic if the cv looked bad and he said no. I forgot to say that i probably drove on a busted boot for about a month. Anyways after the car was through service i drove it and it felt alot better vibration was gone . 3 days afterwords i feel a vibration at around 55-60mph so i decide to do 70mph and the vibration isnt there. 3 weeks later which would be today i have this REALLY bad vibration like something is loose. I dont hear ANYthing either..b-c i thought it was a wheel bearing. I did a search and read a couple threads and they said it was the inner ball joint or intermediate shaft. If the inner cv was okay looking to the mechanic and it drive fine before why is this doing it? maybe he forget to tighten something down? im going to look at it now....if i find something ill post it

you probably need to have your tires balanced again like the guy above said.

also, make sure your lugs are all tight. double check how much air in your tires too.

Could be the wheel bearing, but first inspect your tires, they can warp from having poor alignment or other reasons
