I have read ever forum about shaking while doing 55 n up but nothing, I have had two tire shipp and a Audi mechanic look at it n spend about 2k on the car still no help!! I drive a 2006 b7 s4, this is kind of long but shit is crazy!

It started when I got a flat ($$$) on my stock wheels I put a spare on n the car did shake at high speed but did wasn't the same as it is now.i kept the spare on until over the summer I got a set of 19" wheels with spacers $$$. The shaking is was crazy at like 55-65 so when back the to the tire shop(1).The tire shop(1) who put the tire on my car said that it might be brakes so I got both the brake and rotors done at the same time and also bought coil over at the same time $$$ . Once i got the brakes done and the suspenion put on I got the car back n still did the shaking so I took it too another tire shop(2) and had then check if the tires where balanced properly the first time and got a balance done . They said balance was a little off but they did it again $$$. So I got the car back still a lot of shaking talk tire shop (2) they say it's the spacers so remove spacers and drive no fix. I take of the 19" and the spacers and put the stock wheels on doesn't fix the shaking. So I take it to a Audi specialist Drive Auto Works in NJ, pay the man to check out the car completely,problem; car needs new tire rod links on both sides and new problem needs valve cover gaskets $$$$$$$$$. They fix it those problem but the shaking so they say it's my stock wheels are bent $$$. so now I buy new wheels use my old tire and still the shake.
Pleas help !!!!!

Probably need control arms too but I don't see how it damaged your wheels??
Your tires maybe but not wheels

Did they give the axles joints a good look over?

ROTATING components cause shaking and vibration. It could even be as small as having traditional screw type hose clamps around the CV boots on your axles. Your wheel bearings and or hub may also be slightly bent. Axles could also be damaged.

yes check axles even slightly bent ones can cause a pretty bad vibration
