I have a 2001 Maxima. Recently after tire rotation and balancing I
started noticing steering vibration at aroung 60 MPH. I got the wheels
balanced again, the vibration reduced but again re-appaeared. Since then
I have done the balancing twice but now the shop says that they are
balanced, can some one tell me what could be wrong here.

Thanks.

You probably need new tires and an alignment. Go for the tires and get
an alignment from a good shop.

I'll go for the new tires, I had this problem yesterday, I found that the
tires were worn and it was creating the vibration. Not necessarily are
both of them, one is enough to make vibrations on the steering wheel

I just got 4 new tires and they vibrate a lot worse than the old ones.
Either a lousy job of balancing or something else it wrong.. gotta go
back to have them rebalanced now.. what a waste of my time : (
