Wheel wobbles

[oi8228oi]

on my way to work today between 35 and 45 mph it felt as if one of my front wheels was almost eliptical, shaking my hand on the steering wheel slightly. same thing on the way home... i check and all of my weights on the front are still there (too lazy to take rear wheels off to check)

any clue why this is happening? how to fix?

Shifted belt perhaps?

trac bar loose ?

I'd go with Stroker on this one... you either got a dead cat stuck in the wheel, or the tire up there is beginning to separate...

I think I had the same issue you are describing...steering wheel is just moving slightly at said speed?

Took mine to tire shop and they said balancing. I still had all my weights too, asked how they got out of balance, they said sometimes they just spin on the rim. Problem was fixed.

To eliminate tire out of round/high spot possibilities put the tires on a road force balancer if you shop has one.

From my experience have your tires balanced in the morning since many shops' balancing machines get calibrated when they kick em on at 8AM.
