Please Help with WOBBLING/shaking rear wheel, thanks!

Hi everyone,

It's been awhile since I've been on.

When I'm driving around 30-40 mph , my friend tells me that the rear driver's side wheel is wobbling/shaking. It is fine rolling or going at lower speeds.

could it be the wheel bearing?

what might it be? just wanted some thoughts before I get raped by the mechanics' prices.

thank you!

+1 bent wheel or...

have you modified anything on the car lately? suspension? lowered? toe alignment can be completely off when lowered causing it to "whale" out

You can usually see if its bent from checking on the lip of the rim. You should take it off and check the inside lip too just in case...
