the car shakes while driving, it is the worst between 50-55 mph when coasting, if i go 60 and keep presure on the pedal it almost goes away. the steering wheel does not shake and tires are new

this may be brake pulsation or an axle shaft cv joint going bad. try turning wheel slightly while driving and see if shake goes away if it does then itmay be a cv joint. if it does it mostly while with brake pedal on then have your brakes checked.

Have the wheel bearings checked as well.
