I have a little vibration almost unnoticable at 50/55 area, might be due to my alignment being off though. I am very picky on my vehicles that's why I can feel it, my passengers say they can't feel it. I haven't gotten it aligned yet. Might be your wheel balance if you have gotten an alignment - and no I have an RK 2.5
