Most cars can't handle 100 mph safely. The engines can take the car to that speed, but it's not safe to drive the car that fast. I hate it when a Silverado blows by me doing 90. If they lose it for a second, it's all over. They will be upside down in a ditch before they know it.

110 kph, NOT MPH. That's about 60 or 65 mph. Besids, I've hit 110 in a 1986 Integra. I would have hit 115 if there was enough road (it does make only about 95 hp).

speeding is def. not safe or recommended but, on a dead end street in the country, we had the civic sedan going 118mph before running out of road. And no it didnt feel safe at all, each bump you could feel tires jumping

actually the problem is already fixed. There was this reply from JimmyJames about the threads of the tires. When I remove my tire to replace the CV join, my mechanic notice that the thread on the tires are coming off, I can see the metal strings on the external part of the tire. I did not notice it first because the part where the threads are coming off is on the back of the tire. I replaced it with my reserve and the wiggling was gone. Now, I already replace all my tires since I was downgrading from 60 to 55 series and had an alignment too, it is running pretty smoothly. Thanks guys for all your replies.
