Get the balancing checked again, one of the weights could have fallen off. Or, could be a rotor problem. Just get someone to look at it. Wonder if the teins have anything to do with it.

why you say the tein spring have something to do with the vibrating. its not constant, just over 80.

I seem to get a high speed vibration from the passenger side front wheel, I also getthis at normal speeds every morning, until the tires warm, then it seems to be minimized until I get up to higher speeds... 06 g35x

high speed vibration is usually an issue with rims/tires. Out-of-round, out of balance, uneven wear, etc...i'm going to say it may need to be balanced again. Do you have stock rims/tires, or aftermarket? I've had issues with certain aftermarket RIMS in the past where the tire shops could just never get them balanced properly....Even after 5 visits...
