The X5 is shaking on the high way during rain
i was driving to Indianapolis today and it is raining here, so when i hit about 60 mph the car starts to shake badly, every body can feel it, im using 22 and at first it really scare me so i pull over and checked the wheels and stuff but there is nothing wrong, it never do this when its not raining. Any idea guys?

Warped rotors. They probably got wet when the rotors were hot.

Does your post say you have 22" wheels? If so, you probably have a lip in which case water is getting caught in the rim and throwing the balance off causing the vibration/shaking. It happens to me with my 996tt, happened on my S4 and I have read many many posts of it happening to aftermarket rims with lips. It is like having snow stuck in the rim and it vibrates/shakes like hell. The price you pay to pimp!!
