I noticed I had a part missing from my suspension (mentioned in a previous post) and I was worried that this was causing the vibration issue, so I complained to the dealer that did the work and they replaced the part. I still had vibration issues, so as a last ditch effort they road force balanced the tires... And low and behold, the vibration issue was gone.

This issue could be a variety of factors, but I think because I replaced tires (cheap Amazon ones) and replaced rotors at the same time, I never thought to road-force balance them.

If bought new tires and had your rotors replaced around the same time and are having highway vibration issues, try road force balancing them first!
This is the way to go for sure. I had a vibration issue a while back and went back to my tire guys and ask them if they did the road force balance, and they did not, just the standard "spin" balance. I had them do the RF balance and all was good after that. From now on whenever I do get new tires, I make sure the RF balance them!! Big difference in how they ride at speed.
