Sounds like the tire is out of balance. Or, could also be a bent rim. Have you hit any large potholes lately? Take it to a tire place and have them take a look.

Yeah, probably just tire out of balance. Or, maybe one of the small wheel weights fell off? That can make that happen. Hopefully it isn't a bent rim. Good luck.

i have this vibration on high speed not too long ago, it came out to be a small nail on one of my tire, that causing the wheels to be out of balance. You might wana check your tires if their balanced, or same amount of pressure.

what i have today is also in the passenger side, im sure it's inside. it's like you have a water bottle and it's vibrating. it's not affected by speed. i tried to adjust the seats back and forth and it's gone. and then a few minutes it's back but it's less.

How many miles on your car? Vibration could be a wheel out of balance and grinding noise could be your brake pads are shot.
