Default Wobble at speed

ope you guys can help, i have noticed that when i get to 70 the car wobbles as if it needs the wheels balanced but whats weird is if say i go higher than 70 it evens off

once i start to slow down however the wobble is much worse with no brakes applied

Any ideas

Could be a buckled wheel. Swap front and back wheels around then go for balancing.

sounds like a buckled wheel i have exactly the same problem took my alloys off and then spotted a dent on the inside of the rim put it on the balance and it was brutal when the wheel is fixed bk on higher it then wobble it from side to side if there's play then new bearing otherwise they are fine also balance all of your wheels at the same time
