Hi guys, first time post.
A friend noticed following behind me that my right hand rear wheel is wobbling..
So i had it balanced thinking it might be buckled rim... no such luck!
Had a look at the stud flange amd it is not bent but did notice turning the flange a notchy feeling to the bearing and when i pushed and pulled on the cv shaft it is making a clunking sound... checked against the other side and left has no movement...
Is the wobble because of the cv shaft?

Possible....Could even be the tread pattern giving the illusion of the rim wobbling.

If you can, put that rim on the front and see if the steering wheel wobbles....If it doesn't, the rim/tyre will be fine

A wheel bearing on the trunion shaft.
