Vibration & Clicking Noise? I purchased a set of TT2's. Since I installed them I've had a vibration typically from 60-70, then it gets quite a bit worse above 75. The whole car shakes whether I am on or off the gas.
I've also noticed a clicking sound while driving, mainly above 25 MPH and while next to a highway median.
I'm assuming this is a driveshaft u-joint as well as a balance issue with the wheels? I've had the front wheels rebalanced after adding new tires. The rears are down to the wear marks so I'll be getting new tires soon & having them balanced.
Any other ideas or things to look at? Thanks....

"Tinnerman nuts" are those funky looking clips that are found on 2-3 lugs studs. They're an assembly line deal, to hold drums/rotors in place while the car is going down the assembly line, before the wheels are installed.
OE wheels have a recess to accomodate them, but many aftermarket wheels do not, therefore it's possible to have aftermarket wheels not sit flush on the hubs, which can cause a wobble.

I did a search on google images to see what they look like. I came across this thread.
