Steering wheel shake

The i80/i35 cloverleaf used to be a white knuckle ride at 45 mph now I can run as fast as I want and the only hop and skip is from the rear end jumping on the bumps.
I'd recommend checking the steering components for wear then replace the shocks if they're old and then look at tires.

Stock tires 18" wheels. Transforce I think or something like that.

Will take a look at that as well. I imagine all the rubber under there is timed out. I do have noticable outside wear on the passenger side and have a slight pull to the right as well.
