In Phase

Prior to taking the front wheels off to gain access to the fog light housings, it was smooth sailing up to about 60, then the steering wheel would shake until about 70 when it would clear up again.

One, or both of those tires are slightly out of round.

A trip to meet a friend for dinner had a more pronounced vibration at 55 that kept getting worse past that point. 

Rotating the front-right wheel two lugs forward seems to have corrected the issue and I'm back to smooth up to 60.

Even better is the wheel shake is less at 60 and hardly apparent at 65+.

Victory!

The ultimate solution will be to get new tires that haven't been screwed up by worn suspension components.  But we're not to affording that yet.
