Hello I had a question of what I need for my cars right front tire. Whenever I turn right the tire starts knocking and when I reach about 50mph the right front tire starts to feel like its whobbling. Ive been told that its the strut but there is so many things that pop up for a strut when I look it up on the internet. Any idea what I need?

Hi victor1415,

I don't think it is a strut problem.

Symptoms indicates either of the following :

1. Wheel bearing
2. Tires balancing
3. CV joints
4. Steering linkages.
5. Control arms.

One or more of the above listed items could be faulty.
