    Dude if you hit a curb hard enough to bend a control arm your rim is shot. Start by putting on the spare.

    Nonetheless you gotta feel my car at 70 lol.

    Yeah, sounds like a wheel problem to me...seeing how my car used to do the same thing at 82 mph...yes 82, no sooner than that. Got some new tires installed so that meant they balanced them, and BOOM! Problem solved.

    Bring the wheel to a tire shop, and have them check it out.

    Bent rim.

    Then check brakes.

    Bent rims or not balanced front rims.This happened to my car recently.
    Had to do wheel/tyre balancing 2 times to get it right.
    N.

    brakes just seem like they would be an over time issue, my issue started right after hitting the curb. but when i can finally start to straighten out this issue i will replace wheels tires rotors and pads, then take it from there.

    see a few posts up. It doesnt take much for those rotors to get warped. And when they do, they exhibit the same behavior you are experiencing

    the camber was set to factory specs.
    the car does not pull.
    the balancing was done professionally.
    and i hit the curb at like a 60 degree angle. wasn't straight and and was no side swipe. i ended up going up and over the curb

    Hold on a sec. You got camber plates and did the alignment? To what specs?

    Post them up. I actually think that's the reason. If you have a bent/unbalanced wheel, is also a good suggestion.

    How did you hit the curb? Straight on? Side swipe? Did you check your strut towers?

    Does your car pull in any direction, or does it stay straight? Just details.

    only thing I can assume is that A) one of your calipers might be locking up, which I doubt cuse you would smell it or B) one of your wheels lost a weight and the wheel is now out of balance.


    Did you check them for balancing yet?

    they show some decent wear, but if i'm not braking and the car is still vibrating doesn't that rule out the rotors?
