help weird vibrations from the passanger side wheel area

hey everyone...

over the last few days my 2dr ex has developed a pretty loud vibration from the passanger side dash, wheel, engine campartment area...its basicly only when you hit bumps and speed, or take turns...but once it starts it seems to vibrate when the engine revs up. sometimes you can feel vibrations in the floor to...i've taken it to the dealer and to the place that did my coilovers and they both say they can't find anything wrong! strangly it seems to do it more when its raining out also...any ideas?? this is bugging the crap out me!

Maybe a bad CV joint or boot? The only problem I've read so far about when its raining outside is for when the cat converter gets wet and makes a buzzing sound...

that might be right but the dealer supposedly checked that...i don't know you really can't rely on them...

Sounds like your tire is rubbing the wheel well when the suspension is compressed. Did it happen before the coilovers?
