Wheel wobble

OK, what else can cause classic wheel wobble at around 50mph other than tyre balance and tracking?
It's been in the garage and checked twice, but I still have the 'wobble'?

Thanks

Wheel bearing, play in the suspension, buckled wheel, faulty tyre.... If it ain't broke... Take it apart anyway, how else you gonna find out how it works

Bulge in a tyre

I had a car which this happened with. Vibration at 60-70 mph, balanced up fine. Still there
Balanced it again, still there.

Swapped both wheels front to rear, vibration gone.
Put it back on the balance machine again and span it up a bit faster, and you could see a bulge in the tread, which was causing it

Try swapping wheels front to rear, and see if it is still there Thumbs Up My D3 Build Thread
