Play in wheel bearings...
I took all my **** apart and noticed that the wheel bearings (both front) wobble
what could cause this? I'm guessing that I need new hubs/bearing or am I better off doing a dA upgrade??

regular wear and not having the preload on the bearing will cause that.
depends on how much money you have. new bearings is about 100 in parts. da brake upgrade is a bit more than that if you do it right (reman calipers, new rotors, new pads, lines, bearings).

It also wobbles alot when the car is on the tires. for example when you stand on the side of the car and push horizontaly side to side you can even see the actual rim changing angles I plan on doing the da swap "the right way" but first I have to save up for the stuff so I want to know how long the bearings will last befor it falls apart?
yeah, thats not safe to drive on, sure you don't have the money now, but will you have money when its unstable and you crash? and that much play also beats the hell out of the rest of your suspension. you could very easily have bad balljoints and stuff too
I didn't tighten everything as tight as they should have bin when I did the side to side wobble test so that may have cotributed to some of the wobble..... But when the car was jacked up and you look at the back of the bearing with the axle out you could see the actual wheel bearing wobble (play)....... I just want to know if it will last a month or so wile I get all my stuff together to redo the front end
