In the last week or so,the car has started vibrating really badly between 60-80 ks,when accelerating....at lower speeds its there a bit,shakes quite badly and when i back off it stops a bit....driveshaft...c.v joint....or hub bearing..

Feels like the front left ,but vibrates through the whole car....any ideas..


.....just put 17s on a month ago...would this have done anything....goes away at higher speeds...weird....

Well, if its wet tomorrow you'll be lucky to hit 60 in the cork screw, yeah but cv or ball joint is a good guess. If you jack it up, check it for movement by rocking the wheels by hand.
