Rear End Vibration
what I did noticed was when I switched my tires from the old chrome wheels to other wheels that I know are good the vibration got worse so I’m pretty sure it has to do with the tires at a start but it can also be something more I will be checking all the suspension components later this week for worn bushings. How do I check the driveline or is that dealership from what I heard there was a issue with alignment?
Why would you need to check the drive line when you stated you just replaced it with a new updated one? You seem to be certain it's tires and wheels in your posts. I'm having difficulty following your train of thought. Now you're thinking it could be other components. Rotating tires as suggested would clearly tell you if it is the issue but you don't say you will try that. Read your posts and the replies again carefully and try some of these suggestions.

So I went to do a errand with my wife yesterday seeing how the car reacts but one thing I definitely noticed was the vibration from the rear definitely got reduced a lot I mean a lot that my wife and I where shocked when I was under constant acceleration not super fast but definitely not your regular normal kind. As soon as I let off he gas it slowly started to come back the vibration rotational feel. So I don’t know if that helps for someone to help me. I have not had a chance to rotate the tires to the front yet soon I will to see if that helps the problem. But I wanted to share that of what I noticed.

Are you able to do any of these suggestions yourself or are you waiting for an appointment with a repair shop?
well I think I found my problem so this weekend I finally had time to jack up the car and finally check her out so I looked under the car while the car was in drive and definitely saw the rotational hop coming from the wheels again but again I know these wheels are good so I took them off and then re-did the same thing and what do I see still doing it come to find out the outer cv joint is the culprit of my vibration/ hop of both my rear end sides so that’s where I’m going to start I also did noticed the differential bushing worn and torn so I will be replacing those while I’m at it as well. So after that I will be re checking it all hopefully that should do it. Thanks again for all the input.
