I got the car up on stands today and looked it over. There is zero movement when I check for a bad bearing. No sound either except for the brake pads on the slightly warped rotors. Brakes will get replaced soon. All the bushings seem solid also. Not sure how to check the ball joints.
What I did...

Stock size. 215/50-17 tires on 17x7 wheels. The current tires are 6 month old Goodyear GT with about 5k on them. The newly replaced wheels are Enkei FLC-01. The wheels are about 3 lbs lighter. No diff in the vibration from OEM wheels, but the car handles better in bumpy turns.
I've driven on...

One thing I...
I drive a 2004 Acura TSX with 61K miles. Up to this point, I've spent $1500 trying to fix the problem over the past 15K miles. I get not so good vibrations that appears at highway speeds. Here's what I've observed.
Vibrating comes and goes at 64, 69, 73 and 81 MPH, +/- a few ticks.
Can feel...
