Shakes or Wobbles problem
1992 Honda Accord 4 cyl Automatic 260000 miles

I recently had to replace rear tires due to wear (and one blew like a volcano). You could feel the car wobble, and it showed in the steering wheel at low speeds. I just completed a long-distance trip of 200+ miles and noticed a vibration when I was going 70 on the interstate. When I got back into town, and was driving slower, the wobble was more pronounced, and at very low speed you can see the steering wheel wobble. What are my options on this in terms of what the problem could be? There are no bulging areas on the front tires, which definitely need to be replaced and all lug nuts are tightened down. Thanks for any help you can give.

I am just going to assume that the front tires were about the same age as the back ones. It is very likely that a cord is broken in the front tires and as you have said they are in need of replacement so why not look there first. I would replace the front tires as well.
