Hi,
I feel rear vibration sometimes on speed 30 or 40 Miles. Specially when I turn to left or right and speed up to 30 or 40. It happens sometimes not all times. Does anyone know what is wrong with that?

aftermarket wheels? if you're on OEM then you probably need your wheels balanced again.

Yes the tires are Goodyear 225/17. How about the bent rim?

yes I think so. But how can I find out that is the OEM or not?
I am the second owner and don't have access to the previous owner.

just take your car to a tire shop and ask them to rebalance the wheels. they'll tell you if a rim is bent or not.

My tires model are different. In rear one of them is continental and another is Goodyear. Do you think it is because of this?

Why not just take it to a tire place? Anything we tell you is going to require a trip there anyways.
