Body Quiver, V6 coupe

Does anybody else get body quiver/ vibration in the seat on a 2004 SLE V6 Coupe?

At like 70-85mph i get a slight vibration or body quiver. Is this due to the suspension, struts, insuffcient strut bar?

Does anyone have any solutions?

Thanks for the input guy (not guys because i only got one reply :D )

turns out the tires were just not too great.... i guess it was a string of a few bad tires becasue i tried many tires, until i got the BF goodrich none of them worked.

I'm a firm believer that if you buy cheap tires (ya know, those stores stating four 17" tires for $150 mounted) you're puttin your life in danger. I'm replacing my stock Bridgestone Turanzas with the same.

i 2nd that. to me, tires is what makes the car handle majority of the time. i try not to go cheap for tires. im on my 3rd set of yokohama avid v4s on my stock wheels. great tires! total cost of all 4 with balancing and throwing out old tires and such cost me 500 flat.

I think the brand/quality does make a difference.

The stock tires for my 2005 Solara with 16-inch wheels was not available here (Bridgestone RE92 then EL400) so I was recommended and purchased 4 Stock Accord Dunlop tires ($115ea)...can't remember the model.

So far, handling is great and treadwear is higher 300+ vs 160 and 260 respectively, but noise increased. Wish I had stockies. :(
