Resonation @ 45 mph

Resonation @ 45 mph
I suspect this might be related to a specific combination of tires, wheels, and suspension (in my particular case, star specs, SSR Comp-H wheels, Progress Tech front sway bar, MS front strut bar, and Koni struts w/ RB springs). The resonating is not very aurally pronounced, but I can definitely feel it through the steering wheel and pedals if I keep the speedometer @ 45 mph regardless of gear (even in neutral).
Has anyone else ever experienced a sort of resonating feeling in the car at a specific speed? I don't see an easy way of diagnosing and fixing this, and am fine with just dealing with it, really; it's just a rather curious phenomenon.

I did have a wheel weight mysteriously drop off of one of my wheels a while ago... not sure if it's off my winter or summer set, let alone which wheel. ![Dunno](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/dunno.gif)
It's not like the problem intensifies at higher speeds (it goes away above and below 45 mph, and it's a very narrow window in which it does resonate), which seems strange to me if it is in fact a balancing issue.
The real question: Is it worth ~$40 to test the theory?
