ok i live in town work in town hardly ever get out on the high, well last night i did, and bout 60 mph it starts vibratin pretty bad, all the way to 70 once i get over 70-130 no vibration.... i just recently put a spare tire i had laying around on the front so one is 205-55-16 and one is 215-55-16 would that cause a problem?

the spare might not be balanced

Was the vibration there before you switched tires?

Could it maybe be in the axles? I had a vibration in my gsx and it was the driveshaft carrier bearings.

Two different sized tires? Yeah, that could cause some problems/vibrations. You said it was a tire you had laying around so I would imagine it's probably not balanced therefore giving you a vibration. If the unbalanced wheel/tire doesn't give you a problem I'm sure the unmatched tires will.

haha, yeah i was kinda thinking that would prob be the problem, and no the vibration wasnt there before, so when i get paid friday im gonna buy some new tires and see if it fixes my problem
