Bent Hub ?
i hit a curb the other night really bad. i think i bent my hub. my wheel wobbles(new tire and rim) and i feel alot of wheel jerking during braking. i couldn't quite see the bend in the hub even after removing the rotor.
is there anything else that could because my wheel to wobble like that? axle?

Re: Bent Hub ?
i think more likely would be a bent wheel. put the spare on and see what you get.
EDIT: i just re-read your post... was the new wheel/tire installed after the curb hit?

Re: Bent Hub ?
I would jack the front end up and then grab the wheel and try moving it up down and left to right - do you get any play? The other thing is to put the vehicle in neutral (with parking brake on) and try spinning the tire to check for wobble. My sig other cooked a rim a while back hitting a big *** pot hole and the outside of the rim was fine, it was the inside of the rim that was slightly bent. You may want to pull the rim and tire off and take a good look at it...
