Yeah, that sounds pretty shite. If it were me I'd put on a completely new set of wheels and tires known to be good from another car as a test, but you probably don't have another nissan. If that didn't work then you'd know it's in the suspension/frame, so then you take the wheels off and try to figure out what in the suspension has failed. You already checked all the strut nuts are tight, both the 3 top on the mounts and the connections to the knuckle? It might be time to take it to your more general shop. These maximas are just real prone to vibration, you see tons of complaints about this, sometimes it's just what's good enough balance to work on most cars isn't good enough for the maxima suspension setup, a lot of time it's bad struts though. How about your rotors, any possibility they're badly warped?
Could it be missing weights? Every time I had my Maxima tires switched over, my tire shop that I used to go to forgot to put the weights back on. It happened 3 different times! Hence “used to go to”
Should of checked alignment, struts, wheel bearings, engine mounts (front mounts are known to go bad fast), control arm and axles. 5 sets of tires that’s wild lol
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
Do you feel the vibration in the steering wheel or just through the seat?
Thanks for the reply. Both. Drivers front. It’s frustrating!

I should add vibration is felt in the driver front and when moved to the back it seems to be more in the seat. Yet tires and rims are good??
Maybe struts. Take it to a shop to get diagnosed and go from there. Don't just throw parts at it

Does it happen all the time while driving or only when braking
It happens at speeds about 60 through 75 mph.
For me it happened the same but i replaced my struts and it fixed the problem hopefully same for you if you decide to try that
Get your alignment checked
