Default Bad Vibration

This weekend I put a set of relocation brackets on.(BMR Bolt on) I also put a set of ET Streets on. The car shakes bad at 70 mph and up. Anyone know what this is? I balanced the tires.

My guess would be with the tires... ???? Is it still happening?

Remove the tires and check all areas and mount them again.

Does it vibrate at 80 mph? The front control arm bushings may be torn up. I replaced mine with aluminum G2 lower arms and the vibration went away. When I swapped out the arms I could see that the stock (1LE) bushings were torn up from the vibration.

Otherwise, generally, if the side view mirrors shake it's arear wheel/tire imbalance. If the whole car shakes it's in the front tires/wheels.
