So it could be a warped rotor, a wheel bearing, or tire balancing... those would be my first guesses... but with 9 year old michelins, I'd think that is a good possibility as the source of the problem. I've had michelins dry rot in 5 years or so. Decent tires, but they really don't hold up well to UV, so if this car is regularly parked outdoors during the day, I would look closely at them for spider line cracks and rot in the tread. I don't tend to do huge miles with our cars so I now tend to buy other brands... Nokian has been particularly good in terms of this in the past for me. The guideline of a 6 year age limit is kind of ad hoc and some brands are better or worse for meeting this.
