Steering wheel vibration 70-80 mph help?!

Thanks for that! My wheel / tire guy always hooks me up so shouldn’t cost me much to have them re balanced! And he wouldn’t of accidentally forgot any weights on mine. I believe he uses the high quality weights on mine as well. With the good sticky stuff that don’t come off. But upon inspection I noticed the front left wheel has NO weights on it at all. Which I know from past experiences that a wheel and tire can balance out with no weights but it’s very seldom.

So I’ll have them re balanced within a couple days and report back! I’ll be replacing rotors anyways just b/c I know they’re warped and it does have a tendency to pull one side (to the right) but I always assumed the road curves off that way for rain. So I’ll have to find a road I know is 100% straight and check. I’ll be replacing rotors probably spring time anyways! (Which is only Feb - March) for me. Im in the south we don’t have much of a winter. But thanks guys! I guess if I get rebalanced and it’s still doing it. I’ll replace rotors in spring and go from there.
