are the holding screws in them?? were your lug nuts loose??
if the screws arent in place and the wheel is off they will wobble.
the wheel only wobbles if it is bent or the lug nuts are loose.

well I have removed the rotor. It seems to be that the axle nut wasnt tight enough, but I tighted it to 120 ft lbs and it didnt solve the problem. So I took it off. My guess is that the hubs are worn out from being too old. The could also prolly use new bearings..

who knows maybe I'll be able to get some type r front knuckles and suspention
