1. Wheels/tires may need balancing
2. Wheels may require alignment
3. If you are getting more vibration while braking, you need new brake pads/rotors. (or possibly could resurface your existing rotors)

+1 on these suggestions!

I'd check the wheels/tires balancing first, though then check the tire wear. They may be worn out differently, ie feathering. I had a similar problem on my daily driver vibrating at 65+ mph and it was due to the tire wear.

Make sure you take it to a shop who has active road force measurment, it might not be a balancing issue but a roadforce issue as well. Just throwing that out there as another possible cause. Goodluck.

Wheels need to be balanced. Had this problem when I got my rims installed. Turns out they put wrong weights and they flew off on the highway. After they re-did it with the sticky ones, all is well and I hit over 90 and am lowered.
