I drove home, and when i got off the highway, i noticed i was wobbling. I pulled into a gas station, and my tire HAD AIR. Yet i was still wobbling. So its either my wheel or my bearings. In any case, i left teh car and right now i dont have air in my tire. So now i have to jack up the car, then go get it checked out. If it aint the tire, then i gotta check the bearings.

Try using Nitrogen, it holds up better and it might solve the problem.

If it's the wheel bearing, you are in luck if its the front.
The front is easy to replace, the rear is a bittttcccch you have to remove a bunch of parts, and you have to get it pressed by a shop, etc.

If you do the rears, I would recommend doing both sides. Same with the front.

Shouldn't be your bearings if you are at like 20K miles like you are (could be mistaken about your mileage), they usually go at 100K depending on how slammed u are

Im at 46k broski, not 20k. Besides, i am pretty low. But im sure its not the bearing. I just hope the wheel isnt TOO damaged.

Same thing it says there, 700 shipped. Shipping is flat rate, even if its to a shop. Be ready to wait at least 2 days for a tracking number AFTER it was shipped.

Fitment was real good. But then again, this was the VIS hood. I cant speak for the one they make.
