Q: My right front wheel wobbles?

asked by on January 04, 2017

I hit a straight curb and it shook the car pretty bad and now my right front wheel wobbles I don't see any indents on the rim but I could be wrong is there anything else you could diagnose?

My car has 200611 miles.
My car has a manual transmission.

The front end and rim may have been bent. The front rim and tire should be put on a tire balance machine to check for a bent rim and replaced if it is. Then the front end alignment and suspension checked for bent components.
