Time for some repairs..

[brendan.melanson]

Alright, I'm going to Canadian Tire tonight and having a word with the manager about the situation. I'll let you know what's up then! There's been a lot of KM but it hasn't been that long since it's been done, December maybe? As for the sound from the wheel, Monday I'm gonna have the alignment done and all tires balanced and rotated as well as getting my ****ty hub caps taken off, we'll also tighten the stake nut and check everything out there and see how it goes.

I'll post back my results, thanks for your help rabbit, I owe you one and same to anyone else who has commented. Not trying to pick favorites but rabbit has been an active helper in keeping my Aveo5 alive.

My 06' svm with 87k miles is in a similar state. For me potholes have messed up my wheel balance, along with a bad alignment, enough to cause my steering wheel to wobble when going down the highway.
I now think I need a wheel bearing as I have low humm/growl, at highway speeds. The sound goes with the speed of the car and regardless of any left or right sway. I'm thinking front wheel bearings, but maybe its just the alignment being way out of whack?

A wobbling tire is not a good sign, that could be a ball joint that is really bad, new bearing wasnt pressed in properly, spindle to strut bolts may not be properly secured outer tie rod end could be shot. I would not drive the car more than you absolutely have to until you get it properly repaired. driving with a wobbling tire could lead to worn ball joint, bad tie rod, bad rack and pinion, bad bearing, even a bad strut

Most shops, if you go in for an alignment, wont touch the car with a wobbling wheel, in most cases, they should atleast tell you what it needs before an alignment is done though

Tires need balanced and rotated.
