Is there someone more knowledgeable than me that can cast their eye over these pictures please to see if I'm missing something really obvious as to why my car is shaking at high speeds? I think there may be a leaking bushing on lower control arm - car has had new track rod ends recently and tyres. I haven't got a fortune to throw at it.

The pictures are meaningless, what is needed is a good wiggle and shake and a leaning on with a pry bar....
Was it OK before the new tyres? ...the best starting place would be back at the tyre place to check that they had balanced your new tyres correctly.

^^^^ Wot 'e said.

None look brilliant, but without a proper check, it is hard to tell what is/isn't fooked.

Thankyou - confirms what I was thinking, I'll book it in at a garage to get looked at!
