car vibrates at 55-65mph

it has been happening since 60,000 miles. i have about 85000 miles now. when im driving, no matter what gear, around 55-65 mph my car would violently vibrate and around 70mph it would smooth out. idk whats wrong with it. i can tell you ive replaced the right axle because i can feel it most on the passenger side, got new tires already and no bent rims. already have new brakes and rotors. the only thing on my car is lowered on eibach springs with stock shocks. before i thow anymore money at it just wondering if anyone has the same problem. i've googled, searched the forum and came up with a few ppl having the same issue but no luck in repairing it.

Wheels/tires properly balanced? Any premature tread wear on any of the tires? When was the last time you got an alignment?

I would say it's the axles based on what I've read from other people.

Check the TSX Club Forums under wheel shaking, posts #22 and #30.


Are all the tires of the same brand/type?

Yeah, for some reason the link wasn't working. I edited the post though.

Did you replace the axle with a reman Honda axle or aftermarket?

I'm not sure if this applies in your case but I went through several sets of aftermarket axles in my accord before finally putting in reman Honda axles and I never had a problem after that.
