02 civic 1.7 auto lx sedan vibration at 70 plus

hi everyone,
3 years ago the tranny went out and followed wrenchers post on cleaning the screen in the tranny. i replaced the screen, clutch discs and plates, added a B&M transmission cooler with B&M filter. About 3 months ago i changed the trans fluid and replaced the B&M filter with a fram filter.
i'm taking it tomorrow to make sure its not a tire, wheel, or alignment issue.
could the fram filter not allow enough line pressure?
could it be a solenoid?
it drives pretty straight accelerating and stopping
and the tires have about 30,000 on them with good tread.
I'm going to drive it tonight and see if it does it in 3rd gear.
any suggestion are welcome.

Very normal for unbalanced wheels to not be noticeable until high speed.

Rotate tires on one side and take for a test ride, repeat on other side if you don’t notice a change. At 30k it’s due for a rotate anyways.

if your still getting no change after moving all the tires, might be a axle/bearing issue.
