I have ba gt rims, have just realised one of my "rear only" rims is up front and the front is on the back end. Can running two different offset wheels on the rear be the reason im getting vibration when accelerating above 90? Been chasing this vibration for a while now its starting to do my head in :P

I doubt it. The balance weights can come off. Have you had em balanced recently?

Had them rebalanced just before I got the tailshaft checked.

I chocked the wheels and stalled her up in forward and reverse and there was no vibration which leads me to believe its not engine speed or mount related...I had a perv though just for sh*ts and giggle and it looks ok

vibrations at high speeds are normally caused by wheel bearings, wheel balancing, engine and box mounts and tail shafts. Tailshafts bolt up to the diff 1 way only.

Well I had the tailshaft balance redone aswell as the tyres. Might have a look at the wheel bearings and check the runout. Thanks for your thoughts. Wish me luck :P

Actually I might not. The vibration is upon acceleration only. Not deceleration or when coasting. If it was a wheel balance or bearing problem wouldnt throttle position have nothing to do with it?

Check your ABS sensors, sometimes one will make one wheel drag a bit causeing a high speed vibration normally the last

thing to get checked....J K..
