Vibration when going 60-70
Alright well I changed the brakes a few days ago and I noticed today that when I go over 60 the steering wheel starts to shake. When I hit about 70 it seems to calm down. This doesn't happen when I'm braking only when driving. I tightened up the lug nuts some more to see if that would fix the problem and it kind of helped. What would my problem be?

Alright. Got them balanced and rotated and will be testing it on the freeway and will post back after I do.

Well I just got back and there is still come shaking from the steering wheel but it doesnt seem as bad as it was. Can bad wheel alignment also cause this?

Wheels out of balance are the most common cause. I'm not going to say it can't be the alignment though. Does it pull to the right or left? Have you inspected all 4 tires to make sure they are in good shape and no abnormalities? I would assume the shop that balanced the wheels would have inspected them, but I do know the definition of "assume."

Haven't replaced the CV joints yet.

When you take it back to the shop be sure to have someone check the tie rod ends. I haven't needed to replace those on the Honda, but every car that had a bad T-R-E made the steering wheel oscillate left and right at highway speeds.
The car didn't move out of the lane, just the steering wheel moved back and forth just a little bit at like a 30 times a min.
Have the ends checked before you spend the money on an alignment.
