I have a 03 GS300 w/ 60K on it. Have had a real issue with vibration from 50-80 mph. Had new tires installed and that is when it all began. Had those tire rebalanced 6 times, finally had them changed out. The vibration is better but still not gone. Both sets of tires were high quality Bridgestones, which were the tires they replaced. Took the car back yesterday and watched two different technicians rebalance the tires. Still have the vibration. They even but their test wheel on the balance machine to make sure it was ok, which it was. One of the techicians suggested the wheel bearings might be the problem, as he has seen a very similar problem on a Buick. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Unlike the Buick, the wheel bearings are sealed.

I had difficulty balancing tires when the stick on weights were used. I switched to the Lexus chrome weights that are installed on the wheel rim edge and the problem was resolved.
