I noticed when I approach 65-70 mph, then steering wheel...well the whole car starts to shake. I jacked up the car and I noticed the front passenger side wheel had some play in it. After doing the noob boob thing and searching I found a couple things may be at fault.

1. Many posts said warped rotors, but it doesn't happen when I'm braking.
2. Could be wheel/hub bearing wear.
3. Could be tie rods.
4. Get an alignment/balance.
5. Possible CV joint (no torn boots).
5. It's a DSM could be a clogged air filter:p .

Any suggestions on my next step would be greatly appreciated. TIA
 
Just to let people know who have the same problem, check your tire wear. The dealer I bought mire car from improperly installed the front tires and after 3000 miles they were shot on the inner side (possible camber/toe-in type problem too). I put on new BFG KDWS and it rides really smooth.
