Your tires are improperly balanced...

thax man.

Also the tread on my front tires wears off hella quick, my back tires looks brand new, I know it is front wheel drive, but It never wore down this quick, now they look like radial tires.... can you guys suggest anything?

Alginment won't cause a vibration but will wear out tires prematurely, unless of course you drive hard into turns and don't rotate your tires. If you don't have them rotated and balanced regularly you'll have the problem you discribe, but if you burn it hard into turns and drive hard your tires will wear quickly on the outsides. BTW all tires on new cars are Radials, Bias Plys are very hard to find, unless you have a Semi truck you won't find them. How many miles do you have on the car?

130, 000 miles 94 civic. I do rotate my tires As I should, and I rarely turn hard. But I think my alignment is off....[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]

If your tires are rotated regularly and your front tires are wore out and the rears are fine you must have a bad alignment problem.

Have the same problem....trust me, if you take it to get balanced and they do it right, it will make a hella difference!!! I just found out that if you get your tires balanced @ National Tire & Battery, they will give you freee balancing for the life of the tires....cool huh???
