If they check out take the car to a tire shop and have them balanced and see if that helps.

Then I would start looking into the engine mounts and transmission mounts.
Hey, I'm in the market for the trannsmission mounts you are speeking of. How do I know if they are bad? I have a vibration while accelerating my 84' 300D Turbo.
Looking for parts here and cant find more than the "tail tranny mount" that I just installed. Vibation still exists. Motor mounts were replaced last year.
