Default Vibration at speed

My 2001 XKR with 49,000 miles vibrates at about 70mph. Have replaced the front rotors, dealership says it could be rear ones too, or tires. Any suggestions? Wheels have been balanced and aligned.

Find a shop with the Hunter road force balance machine. Tire Rack and Discount Tire are likely candidates. Cost is about $25/wheel, but it will eliminate the wheels/tires as source of problem, and on the XK8 that's usually the problem.
