Default I NEED HELP WITH MY DEL SOL FAST!

Okay guys and girls. I have a del sol and it is running but the only problem i have with it is that when i go on the freeway or highway which other way you call it. My driver side tire but keep in mind its not my balance or aligment. There is like a loud noise coming from it and it is starting to annoy me especailly when i accelerate. I don't know if it is my tie rod or rack and pinion. it started to effect my steering because it started to shake or vibrate my steering wheel while i'm driving. anyone please if you have this problem with your sol or eg, help me fix it NOWWWWWWWWWWW!

If it's not the axels, or the rotors and the nuts are tightened down good.. I'd say wheel bearing.

Not likely. you would know if it was your tie rod (only one wheel would turn with steering wheel, the other would turn as it pleases), and rack and pinion won't cause vibration like you were referring to. Wheel bearings are in the center of the hub, and need to be pressed in/out at a machine shop.

Before taking it to a shop jack the car up and straighten the wheel so the tires are straight. Try to wiggle the tire top to bottom and side to side. If there is play it might be a bad tie rod end or a bad ball joint.
