Check the most obvious first: are the lug-nuts properly tightened? The wheel bearings and then the ball joints and tie-rods are the things I'd suspect to be the most common reasons for this problem.

Why does steering wheel wobble not car but steering wheel when wheels are straight?
The steering joints and connections are worn and need replacing Actually, the most likely problem is the tires. They may just need balancing. Sometimes the belts in the tires separate which causes a wobble. high/low spots in tires also causes a wobble. A bent rim can cause a wobble. Excessive negative caster will cause a wobble (alignment issue). Steering joints (inner and outer tie rods will not cause a wobble)
How can you diagnose the cause of right rear wheel wobble in a 1998 Subaru impreza rs?
Swap rear tires from right to left, see if the wobble changes sides. If the wobble changed sides you have a bent rim or a bad tire. If the wobble didn't change sides you have a bent axle or hub.
Would slow puncture cause steering wheel wobble?
you could have a broken steel belt in one of your tires, that happened to me. I had a tear in my right tire that caused that in my 91 Roadmaster.
What causes wobbly tires?
I dont think a tire will wobble unless the entire wheel wobbles.... Problems with the undercarraige could cause this. Also if a tire has uneven treadwear from a poor alignment, it could wobble. A missing balance weight, or improperly balanced tire could cause wobble. Emergency braking could leave a flat spot in the tire. Check all four tires for treadwear patterns, to see if the tire is balding in one section faster than others. Ideally it will bald from the center outwards evenly as the tire ages. If the tires look even, then most likely a problem with the undercarraige is causing the wheel to wobble (broken, worn or missing component). A tire could have internal belt damage from hitting a deep pot hole hard and cause it to wobble after.
Why low speed wobble in steering uneven road with wheel pulling to the right?
Could be alignment or air pressure causing pull. wobble is most likely tires out of balance.
Would a bad wheel bearing cause your front to hum and wobble?
yes
Have a right front wheel wobble what would cause this Have cahanged the back to front and back to front tires and problem still consists. No noise but could this be a wheel bearing problem?
Bad wheel bearing? Most likely a loose frt end component, Or the hub could be bent due to an impact.
What causes a low speed wobble on a Honda motorcycle has a new tire that has been balanced?
There can be several reasons for a tire wobble on a motorcycle. Here are a few things to check. Check the tire's inflation. An under-inflated tire can cause a wobble. Even if the tire is new, tubeles tires may leak especially if there is some fault with the rim. Or there may be a small puncture. Since the wheel has just been balanced, this is hardly a cause but what if it was balanced wrong? However, wrong balance would mostly cause a vibration at higher speeds. If the tire is a rear tire, then it could be misaligned, that is to say, wrongly placed so that it is skewed. This can cause tire wobble. Damaged or warped rim or break rotor can also cause a wobble. The part of the tire that is closest to the damaged part will have a tendency to jump when it hits the road. As can be seen from this, a front and a rear wheel can have similar problems which cause a wobble but more things can potentially go wrong with the rear wheel.
You just had 4 new tires a wheel alignment and tires balanced and the right front tire is vibrating?
I would think its the shocks causing the vibration or the car to wobble, do check on car shocks!!
Why would car wobble when changing lanes?
Because your steering wheel is being turned, which puts your tires in another position rather than straight. You might need an alignment, or a wheel balancing.
