Harmonic vibration (tires?) 850

Hello fellow Brickers,

I put a new set of tires on my '95 850 GLT (195/60-15) back in April, putting about 7,000 miles on them, then noticed a bit of a harmonic noise coming from the tires. Nothing noticeable below 40 mi/hr, but above that, a bit of audible "humming" coming from the wheels.

I had my tires rotated and rebalanced on Friday, but noticed the problem was still present after getting the tires switched around and rebalanced.

What should I look into next? Could I have a bent rim, or may I need a 4-wheel alignment?

Thanks again for all your help,

sperryrand
