My 91 Civic with almost 197k miles has a bad shimmy (felt
quite noticeably at the steering wheel) at 55 mph on up.
It's worsened in the last year or so. Wheel balancing has
been checked. I watch the tire pressures closely. I rebuilt
much of the suspension last year but did not touch the ball
joints, other than to check for play.

I am figuring it's either (1) need four new tires and the
first ever alignment (I have been putting it off... ); or
(2) an engine mount.

I will watch this thread closely.
