    its one of 3 things i can think of.....check ur tie rods to see if the pin is in and loose nuts....ur wheels and tires might need to be check.....and lastly...check ur lower control arms and see if the pins are there or any loose nuts ...

    also it could be wheel bearing, road force variation, axles, loose wheels, unbalanced tires, bent rim, god knows what else

    yeah, def check if the tires are balanced. Some of the weights could of come off. Thats probably the cheapest, so i would check that before you spend money to have a mechanic to check the other stuff.
