Although it would seem unlikely on a newer car like your '98, I had a very similar problem that was caused by a bad shock. I my case the car would shake from 45 to 55 and be OK at other speeds regardless of whether I was running street wheels or snow wheels. It also got worse the further I drove the car. New shocks fixed the problem. Larry
