E36General discussion and technical help for (E36) 1992-1999 3 series cars. 318, 323, 325, 328.
I’ll go to the tire shop this Saturday to check everything. I just hope it’s not the rim.
Projal,
Did you hit a “pot hole” before?
It shouldnt be too expensive to get straightened if it is the rim, dependin on whether or not the rim has to be refinished after the straightening, it should cost 60-150 dollars.

It could possibly be a bad wheel bearing, I think I have one of these at the moment, and at higher speed it will vibrate the wheel a little. When at speed and turning transfering weight to that wheel it becomes more noticable.

I don't have that much money right now. I rather bring it to the shop and make it straightened. Rims are damn expensive and not all rims are approved by the land transport.
balljoints...i have replaced three of mine so far.
yea..eveything everyone said.

If the rims are stock they're alot softer than you think.. 3 of mine got bent...2 scrap...1 repairable..and 1 was fine. The 2 for scrap only had a slight flat spot on the inside of the rims. Cost me 90 to get them checked, hopefully your rim is repairable.
