Did all the wheels road force under 25 lbs?
Bill, I am not 100% clear on what you mean about "same or lower" on rear end. Do you mean in comparison to the trans?

I did not get the exact readout from the road force, but only one was out of "spec". We spun the tire 180 on rim and then was fine. The guy running the balancer was the shop's key tech, and seemed to have quite a bit of experience. One rim has a little run out, but I ran a test drive replacing that tire/rim with my true & round spare, and no difference in feel.

Regarding vibration on the shifter, you can feel it, but its not like it shakes out of your hand either. Feels about the same as it does through the rest of the car. Running on the chassis dyno Wednesday night so hopefully can diagnose something spinning the driveline while standing still...
