I had the same initial thought, re: tires, and actually took it in to a tire shop and had them balanced on Monday. It helped marginally, but is definitely not the main problem. As far as suspension goes, do you think I would be looking more at shocks or ball joints? I've had both mentioned to me (by friends/coworkers, no one I would really take at face value as far as mechanicals go), and would really like to just have some kind of idea where to start if I do have to take it into a shop. I hate the fact they charge you $120/hr to diagnose, and come back with "well, it could be A, B, or C" so you try and pay an arm and a leg for A and B before you find out it was really the 15-minute, $50 part that constituted C
