I have a 1996 eclipse gs and when I get up to around 70mph, it begins to shake. any ideas of what it could be. the only thing wrong with it is a bad rear wheel bearing

alignment and unbalanced tires, also could be due to loose CV axle, bent A frame , bad weheel bearing, loose sway bar or stabiliser bar , if you have aftermarket wheels on it and they are a diffrent size, then due to the level of the car sitting now, loose lug nuts , bent rim, lump in tire due to over filling tired with air, those will be your most common

If the rear wheel bearing is bad. that would be the most likely problem. Get is fixed, If there is still shaking, have the tires balanced. There could be other causes, but I doubt it

99% of the time vibration is caused by tires being out of balance. people will tell you a hundred different reasons (especially if they're charging you $$) but balance the tires and it should go away. (I had my tires balanced by 2 different shops and was told i needed 2 different things, but the 2nd time I had my tires balanced, the problem, a vibration from 45mph-55mph, went away)

Tires might be out of balance, could be a bent rim. Might need an alignment.

It's a piece of crap on wheel, I'm surprised it doesn't shake when you hit 2 mph. Grow a pair and buy a real car.
