Vibration when engine braking

[OneExtra]

I have noticed recently that when I take my foot off the accelerator at 100mph+ and let the car decelerate without using the brakes there is a vibration through the steering wheel, its very noticeable.

I have looked at all three wheels and the front nearside has no wheel weights on it.

How often is a wheel and tyre so perfect that balancing weights are not needed as the other 3 wheels have weights.

I also get a slight bit of brake judder when braking at high speeds but not always

Any advice welcome, Thanks

Most definitely the balancing...

I don't think I've ever had wheels without weights.

agreed. They have fallen off I reckon

Check the balance of that wheel (which you've probably done by now) and I know it's obvious but check wheel nut tightness with a t/wrench.

Thanks all I have had the wheel balanced and it did need doing. Not gone fast enough to test yet but there is certainly no vibration on acceleration.
