My M37 right front tire wobbles at 25 mph, but will cease to wobble at higher speed or when brakes are lightly applied. Is this a worn wheel bearing problem or other. I need to know in advance what is wrong such that I can source parts either for my self or a mechanic. Parts for a '62 M37 are not a standard item at the local auto parts.

Tire out of balance,  
tire separation,  
worn wheel bearings (you may hear a growling type noise from this),  
worn suspension components,  
or front end out of alignment are some causes.

I forgot to add: a bent rim.

Lose wheel nuts or sticking brake caliper on one of the front wheels. touch wheels or brake caliper after a drive. Becareful, calipers can get very hot if sticking. Wet fingers first. Good Luck.
