Vibration Please Help
I have a 99' Z28 with 41k, I just bought it a few weeks ago. I have a vibration that I think is coming from the rear, I had the tires rotated and balanced. All tires balanced out good and had a tread depth of 8 out of 10 so the tires are practically brand new and in good condition. I can not feel any flat spots on the tires or any signs of cupping. When I leave in the morning and the tires are cold I can really feel what would be a flat spot at just 5 mph and below. When the tires are warm I do not feel it unless above 80mph. Is this a tire issue or could some old shocks and springs cause this as well as I am sure with the low miles on the car they were probably never replaced.
Thanks for the help!

Well the tires have been balanced.....but would I feel the drive shaft at 5 mph or less and then really not feel it strongly again until around 80??
