    Check if one of the rims are bent. When I had a vibration in my car, it turned out to be the CV Axles.

    Wierd, mine started doing this a few days ago. It was already scheduled for an alignment so when I took it in I had them check it out. Turns out both front wheel bearings were so wasted they couldn't do an alignment (and I wasn't getting any noise from them).

    I spent most of the day ****ing around with them and couldn't get my hub off. I'll try again tomorrow and let you know if it goes away. But if I replace these hubs and the vibs turn out to be a cv shaft I'll be royally pissed off.

    After replacing the tie rod ends and the passenger side bearing (I'm going to **** with the drivers side more today) my vibration issues went away.

    I'd guess it was the tie rod end doing it since the bearing had almost no play in it. The end was litterally a 10 minute job, only two tools you need is a socket for the nut on the bottom of the end, and a 22mm wrench to loosen the set nut.

    tire guy told me that the belts in the tires were either broken or moving... causing an egg shape... hence the wobble... replaced the tires and they told me my right outer tie rod was bad as well.. no more wobble though

    Possibly a bent rim or worn hub as others had said. I let mine get to the point I had a 1" x 5" bare spot on the middle of the tire tread. You could see the air in the tire it was so bad. Rest of the tire had really good tread except that one spot. It was a front tire and could have been pretty nasty if a blowout would have occured. Good Luck!
