Default Hey guys I have another problem...
I changed my plugs yesterday no big deal and then I took the car out in the snow. aka big empty parking lot for some fun. Was working great and then today I have a problem. It seems that everytime I get above 60mph the car begins to shake terribly, like really bad, and it is worse the faster I go.

Anybody have any clue as to what's wrong or what I might have done?

Do you have snow packed up inside one of the wheels.. Sounds like a balance problem.

Default The day after I took my current sig picture I had that problem BIG TIME!
The wheels were packed solid, melted a little and then froze solid. Had to stop at a gas station and use the wooden end of the windshield squeegee to clean them out and it still took a while longer until it cleared up completely.

Default car wash
unless you have a heated garage, go to your local car wash and get ride of it. the ice will "fling" off after a while.

Default Yeah, bad tire balance...like in the movie My Cousin Vinny...
when he can't figure out why the car is handling so bad, and Maris Tomei points out that he has mud in the wheels. LOL! God I loved that movie!!
