okay real simple.
First and foremost you have to assume that the alignment of the car or balance of the wheels is off. once those two things are ruled out then.....
Troubleshoot!!!
1. Lift the front end of the car, both tires off the ground.
Set the car on jack stands for safety of course.
No grab a rim from front and rear and gently try to wiggle it.
If it wobbles then there is a problem with the wheel bearings.
If there is no movement then move to the next test.
2. Turn the tire from left to right. Like someone is in the car turning the steering wheel.
if when you pull it to one direction you feel any play or it clicks when you start to put force on it in either direction then your end links have problems.
3. if still nothing then try lifting the wheel up, putting force to the strut tower.
If there is any play there then it may be a worn strut top.
Well thats my 2 cents.
good luck.
