make sure your lugs are tight . . . torque them down to 80 lb-ft. with a torque wrench

did you check the balance? If not check it, if so and a different set of wheels doesn't wobble then yeah, your wheels are prolly warped/ bent

Take it to a rim shop and have it checked for true-ness and make sure all your suspension related objects on that side are properly tightened.
