03 si 40-50 mph vibration

Hey all, I have a 2003 si with about 1200 mi. on it and since I bought it seems to have a slight vibration at about 40-55ish at 900 mi. on the car I took it to honda and at first they said a tire was off .25 ounces then they came back a second time and were like oops we rechecked it and now its off 1.25 ounces ... but still i get this feeling of a vibration it seems to come more through the gas and clutch pedals than the steering wheel but I still do feel it in the steering wheel. Any suggestions or similar experiences? Ps there was 110 miles on it when i bought it was the test drive car , if that helps at all) thanks everyone

well when i put 17's on my '04... i had a LOT of shakin goin on when i got up there on the freeway. they rebalanced my wheels and i'm all good now. i don't know if that helps or not. i could feel vibrations in the pedals as well. it could just be your imagination lingering. i always feel for ANY little thing that's different in my car and it drives me crazy, too!

Vibration

Have your tires rebalanced in a good shop. I have 17's and never had that problem.
