My car STILL, STILL has vibration problems
Alrighty, as some of you know, I've had vibration problems for a while now. At first, it was because one wheel was slightly bent.
Then, my brakes died one day while doing something pretty dumb (don't ask, I haven't done anything like it since) and I had to slow the car down by moving it side to side. By the time I got to the intersection, I was doing about 60-80 (honestly don't remember, it was too fast) and I had to hang a hard right. In doing so, I slid across the road and hit one of those little curbs that divides the road, and according to the tire place had three bent rims total.
Now, I've replaced my rims and tires, had everything balanced at LEAST 12 times, and I still get vibration above 60 (no brake involved). Could I have bent something, like a lower control arm? If so, how do I check and how hard would it be to fix?

theres alot you could have done. to fix it right you need to replace all upper and lower control arms with bushings, both upper and lower ball joints, steering rack with outer/inner tie rods, and all bearings. your going to nickel and dime yourself to death replacing one thing at a time. and even if you get it to stop shakin your goin to eat thru tires like crazy if you dont get everything straightened out.
