Low speed steering wobble

[DCC_CUP]

Driving on a smooth road, slowly, my steering wheel will rock side to side... When i turn, the rocking stops, however the wheel will return to the centre position with very irregular movements. Both tyre pressures are equal, and nothing else strange seems to happen. Any ideas...?

buckled wheel.

swap fronts and rear and see if it goes away.

Cheers. I'll certianly swap the tyres around to see if that makes a difference. I do get a vibration at higher speeds, so I suppose it could be that... How does a wheel get buckled? I can't recal hitting anything recently. This "judder" only started about a month or so ago.

It might not be buckled, could be tyre deformation as above.

Yep, defo a deformed tyre (contis). Fully shod in new rubber and the car is feeling great again.
