    Its sounds like its buckled.Take it to a tyre place and get them to check it out on a balancing machine.If its not that,then it could be a stuffed wheel bearing.Jack it up and spin the wheel and listen for any unusual noise,it should be smooth to turn,if it feels rough and not spinning easy then its more that likely the wheel bearing.Its easier to tell what the bearing is like if the brake caliper is removed first.

    Could be a tyre prob.Run your hands around the tyre's tread and feel if there are any bulges-a seperated tread.Check both sides,roll foreward and recheck.

    The shaking is a balance problem,be it a tyre,bent rim or bearing flogged right out.
