Possibilities ..............
- something going on with the ring and pinion in the diff
- the LSD is going. Have you been using the wrong fluid in there? Have you not been changing it when you should?
- propshaft bolts loose or broken
This is not the usual wheel bearing symptoms. Bad wheel bearings will get very hot after a highway drive and they hum or whine.

I just recently changed the diff. fluid.
Redline Product. I don't remember the exact number and weight but I can post it later tonight.

If you have a clunk-clunk-clunk that is consistent when coasting in a tight circle, your LSD is sticking. Not to worry, just deal with it or get another dif.
The vibration on accelration is pitted buckets on stock axles, or aftermarket axles even if they are NEW. IF you get auto parts axles, you are guaranteed to make it even worse. I have proven this on the s2k multiple times as well as my 1997 Accord (I didnt put these axles in, I wouldn't...the customer came in with them)
Get your OEM axles back and do the bucket swap...NEVER give up your stock axles.

I actually got the OEM axles!

You might want to check his profile to see what year the car is and why they only had 600 miles on them. Maybe he put 600 miles on them but the car it came off of before him had way more.
As far as changing the diff fluid recently, this is also not a guarantee that all is well. What kind of Redline did you use? I know for a fact that Redline Shockproof is a poor fluid to use on the S2000. Was it a GL-5 fluid? What SAE rating was it? A non-GL5 fluid could toast your diff in a matter of hours.
