    Try jacking the front wheels up and rocking them side to side. See weather they spin freely and dont wobble. If it usually only happens on corners, it could be a bearing under lateral stress just coming off balance. If the wheel wobbles side to side, there's a good chance it's the bearing. A mechanic should'nt charge too much for one.

    I recently had a strong jolt on the road which knocked my wheel off balance and it turned out to just be wheel balancing.

    The worst it could be is the diff, If its on a tight corner and all of the diff gears are working their asses off, there could be something loose or free in the diff. But don't jump on that idea.

    Hope this helps,
    Tom
