Not so good vibrations
I have a 2000 Honda Accord LX 4dr with manual transmission and 4 cyl engine. Not all the time, but often, when driving at speeds between 30 and up to 80 MPH, I get a vibration I can feel in the floor board with my left foot, and it can sound like a growling sound.
I just recently removed a lowering kit from the car and installed new Gabriel struts and springs all the way around. replace the lower ball joints, all four sway bar links, and one tie rod end. The car has since been 4 wheel aligned.
It seems to occur only when I left off the throttle, when the vehicle first starts to slowly decelerate. I do not notice it if I step on the brakes to slow down, and it does not seem to happen at slower speed.
My first thought is drive axle joints. Interested in opinions.
Thanks.

Maybe is the best I can answer that. I am generally at higher speeds and not actually turning. I notice it more at highway speeds. But it does seem like it might be worse when adjusting lane position or changing lanes.

Normally with axles it will get worse when turning. When turning right means driver side axle turning left means passenger side axle.
Maybe take it to a parking lot and do some sharp turning and see if you can hear/feel it.
