Whole lotta shakin' going on...

Colder weather is arriving in the Carolinas and I am reminded of a problem with my 07 Fit Sport. When the temperature drops, I notice a vibration that seems to originate from the passenger front side. It's so strong, I thought I was getting a flat tire. It seems to be noticeable at 55-60 MPH than seems to smooth out after a couple of miles and completely goes away. This is the 3rd set of tires and even after tire rotation it still has the front end passenger shake si I don't believe its the tires. Any suggestions are appreciated!
