My car did the same thing, but only most noticeable when driving about 55 in 5th gear. I replaced the tires, Tried different wheels, replaced the U-joints, ect... It ended up being a broken pilot bearing.

thanks for the input guys
im kinda leaning towards pilot bearing like u said miles. its gettin a little hard to put into gear when sittin still and also squeaks unless my foot is resting on the clutch
on the other hand, today i noticed it got a little worse and started doin it while i was sittin still at a light. some reason a lifted up/put pressure on steering wheel and it stopped
so could it it have something to do with steering wheels itself?
im think i might replace u joints sometime soon as well. because sometimes it wants to lung forward back and forth when goin slow

Squeeking while sitting there with the clutch in is the throwout bearing.

Pilot bearing ? do you mean the input shaft bearing or the throw out bearing? the input shaft bearing is also suspect. .. If that is worn your d/s will sag, and wear the input shaft yoke down.. I would just pull the d/s for the heck of it and check that out.. it takes 15 minutes.
when you get up to the vibrating speed , put it in neutral and shut the engine off . That will eliminate the engine and the the clutch , flywheel , and throw out bearing. I have never heard of a broken pilot bearing causing a vibration , but shutting off the engine eliminates everything before the driveshaft.
well yesterday found out both front tires r shot and i know the alignment isnt perfect
also when i got home i checked the steering shaft and there is play along with it touching the headers, if that matters
