Not the wheel bearings.. Wheel bearings are fine.. An cars web lowered for while now never did it. It's only about 100-120 then goes away.. You can feel the wobble in your feet when it does. Then when I get on the brakes hard it will wobble.. It's aggravating me lo. Might buy 2 new tires for the front and see if that changes anything

And you can only feel it on a smooth road.. Like a highway. If I'm on a regular road you won't really feel it.

Why wouldn't you just rebalance your existing tires.

I guess I can do that. Will try tht out tomorrow. I know I need an alignment either way... Just did a trans job. But I'm taking this trans out again this week so gonna wait til it's all back together.

It's just leaving me to beleive it's not a balance issue cause I rotated the wheels around and it still does it.

I have the wheel wobble. My breaks squeek intermittenly too to the beat of the brake wobble. Im just ignoring it cause the pads are fine but my guess is my rotors might have warped.

It happens during lightish breaking at higher speeds (60mph+). Under 40mph its not there. so its pretty weird. comes and goes.

if it only occurs during braking, you have probably smeared the compound of your pad unevenly on the rotor surface causing this.
