My indy checked the tip mount and it was in good shape.
Leading evidence: 'Check tip mount and it was in good shape' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion).

Suggestion
Does the vibration frequency change with the RPM of the car?
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2003 base 996 coupe, IMS done 2k ago.
There's a very high frequency vibration in the steering wheel that is definitely from the engine. (varies with engine rpm)
It's ever so slight, but enough to make my hands feel like they've gone to sleep and are coming back to life after 30 mins or so.
Do you'all experience this? Any ideas on the cause?
stopped and in neutral the vibration can still be felt, varies with engine RPM. I have a Tiptronic four brand-new michelins, verified that all rims are straight and balanced. Could be wheel bearings Maybe?
Check your power steering fluid level. Move the steering wheel in/out and see if that makes a difference. As said, most vibrations from the engine/transmission are transmitted to the car from worn out mounts (engine or transmission).
What about low-speed vibration when engine not warmed up; goes away after 10 min. driving and not felt in steering. Previously diagnosed with cracked ignition coils and possible misfires. /X3
Was the flywheel replaced along with the IMSB? I used to have a 95 mustang GT. I did a clutch and flywheel and got a bad, unbalanced flywheel. Had a pretty bad vibration through the stick and steering wheel.
The transmission mount on the tiptronic is completely different then on the manual cars. The rubber bushings tend do dry out and crack much faster. Easy to check.
