you might need some hub centric rings if u have aftermarket wheels or could be an alignment problem or could be balancing.

Its a special feature on new Hondas, after 100 MPH it turns on a special vibrating massager to put you to sleep. It's all about luxury.

If the wheels have just been rotated, then I would start diagnosing the issue by either reversing the order and seeing if it goes away or jump straight to balancing it.

What was the interval you waited in order to have them rotated? It's possible the tires have some serious tread wear and now that you've rotated, it'll shake.

I had mine over 100 mph a couple of weeks ago, and it was smooth and solid. More than likely it has something to do with the rotation. Probably tread wear and moving the tires into differnet positions at the corners.

Vibration issues at high speeds are susally due to balance. Your alignment has to be WAY off for it to cause a vibration.

This is a very common problem, it's just more pronounced on the civic since the suspension is so stiff. It's less noticable on a car with softer suspension.

The speed limit is 65 MPH. I don't know why you're doing 105MPH.
