Just how much "feedback" vibration is normal when driving at about 75-90 mph. Brakes are new.Wheels balanced last week.Dunlops Sp900 tyres. 34 psi front."power Engineering" Tracking not too long ago.

Just last night driving on m4. thought that wheel does vibrate a bit....

Any clues??

Most likley wheel balance / wheel problem but it could be a damaged tyre distorting at high speed.

Could be worth getting the wheels balanced on the car if you can find a garage that will do it.
