Get the wheel off the ground and see if it moves back and forth(left to right)...if so...tie rod end most likely. Does the car seem to "steer itself" when you hit a bump?

Man, I need to put my new ones in...

Not urgent...but you'll start to see "scalping" on the inside of the tire (kinda like camber wear, but uneven).
