    Front or back, does it increase with speed, does it go when you turn the steering wheel, have you had the wheels balanced, did you get the propshaft balanced?

    its coming from the front,the wheels are brand new and have weights on them but going to get them balanced again at the weekend to rule that out.the propshaft was on the car when i bought it was going to have a look at it but its a mission to get anywhere near it,as said im going to balance the wheels first before i dig deeper,it increases when you get faster.
