Steering vibration

Hey so on my 03 Max, after a wheel alignment and balance I am still having some vibration from my steering wheel at 70-80 just cruising. I have Stillen drilled rotors and Axxis pads. No vibration while braking just while cruising so I don't think it can be the brakes?

It could be a tire that has a bad belt. Or bad alignment, balance, damaged wheel or wheels. You also should have the steering/suspension checked for excessive play (out of spec) or damaged/worn components.

I had the same problem, but my tires were getting pretty worn plus whoever owned my car previously had put on 245s on the stock rims. A new set of tires solved my problem. If your tires are good they could need rebalancing or you could have bent wheels.
