front is 235/40/18 and back is 255/35/18... nice and low looks very nice....

Hey guys, need to get some feedback and suggestions here. I've never used any 18' on my E46 until 3 days back. Well, i've changed the rims, 18' Japan tyres and also the Eibach pro kit. However, im having this issue where my steering vibrates at speed 80km/h and above. Sure enough that the ride is now stiffer and the steering is quite sensitive to uneven road condition. Anybody facing this issue? How do u guys go about it anyway?

A simple diagnose: Do u feel any vibrate before 18"? If no, then the rims/tyres are the culprit.
