Vibration off and on...strange

Well i'm getting this weird steering wheel vibration. It will vibrate for about 2-3 secs, then get smooth for 2-3 secs and go back again to doing that over and over.

This happens with the clutch in/out...

Any suggestions???

An alignment will do wonders for you. I started out the same way, then she would start shaking at 105-110kph(55-60mph). I had an alignment done after I got new tires, and had her up to 150k last night. Nice and smooth.

also, check the wheel weights on your rims...I lost one once and my car would shake at odd speeds...

Get wheels balanced and front alignment checked.
