Front passenger wheel shakes when making slight right turns at 60km?

When I make slight right hand turns at 60km or more, such as around a curve, my steering wheel and front passenger wheel shake alot. There is ALOT of wear on the outside of the tire. When I jacked the car up I could move that wheel back and forth. My girlfriends dad who is a heavy duty mechanic said it is probably my wheel bearing so I bought new wheel seals to rebuild them (going to do both of the fronts). I just wanted to double check to make sure this seems like the problem and if any one else had any more insight.

I also saw a write up on teamFC3S.org I think about tighting up the hubs/wheel bearings or something like that but I cant find it for the hell of me

The tapered style wheel bearings are easy as hell. You don't even need FC3S's writeup, just look in any shop manual or haynes manual aobut how to do front wheel bearings.
