[W126 Coupe] Sterring Wheel Vibration Dilemma

[Michael de Holl]

To my knowledege nothing has been done to the front end. In addition to haveing the tires balanced twice I had the wheels checked for roundness. The dealer wanted to put another set of wheels on the car but didn't have a set that would fit. What front end work would you suggest that could cause this vibration?

  What work has been done on the front suspension/steering?
   
  Have you replaced any of the front end components, including rubber parts?

  My 91 SEC has a stering wheel/front end vibration at 60 to 70 mph thats driving me nuts. When I first got the car three years ago it had been sitting for a long time. I replaced the tires with Michine Premiacy and had them load balanced at a MB Dealer. It feels like the typical wheels out of balance.
