road vibration

hey guys...here at penn state we got a shitload of snow over the weekend that i had to drive in..well after driving my CL in 6+ inches of snow, i went on the highway and my car would vibrate violently once i reached 60...so i got out to check my wheels and there was some snow buildup in my rims so i shook it out and made sure that my lugs were on tight since i just got new tires and figured that was the problem..so i get back in my car and now once i hit 75-80 it does the same shit..what could the problem be?...its a violent vibration that makes me feel like my damn wheels r gonna fall off or some shit...can ne1 help diagnose?

well the other thing to check is warped rotors and also if you tightened up the lugs yourself you should probably go to a tire shop and have then torque the lugs evenly
