So here in Minnesota this past weekend we had about 25" of snow falling just on Saturday. My AWD IS250 handle its pretty well while most got stuck but I could use some Blizzaks.

Anyways, so after driving in about a foot of snow during the weekend I noticed my car started shaking a lot and it was due to snow and ice building up inside the wheel gaps throwing the balance off. Well I drove about 80 miles will it shaking before I could get a pressure washer to clean off the snow and ice from the wheels. Now even with clean wheels and no signs of snow or ice my car is still shaking at speeds exceeding 45MPH and gets worse as I go. Could driving it for the 80+ miles cause my tires to go unbalanced? Do I just need a tire balance or do you guys think its something else? I also have the "Check VSC System" light on.

Weird, whenever I had this issue, I just had to get the chunks of ice/snow out of the wheels. Maybe you knocked off the wheel weights?

Thats what I was afraid of. I am going to take it into lexus for them to take a look at it and check out the Check VSC System warning.

Definitely do that, you might have also done something to your brake sensors or something. How strong of a pressure washer was this?

I just took it to a self car wash and put it into pressure rinse.
