Diagnose my steering wobble
-FWD
-Most noticeable at slow speeds and when first starting, but clearly tied to each tire revolution. Increases frequency with speed.
-Not as pronounced when turning (had a cv boot fail once on a different vehicle and this seems different)
-Not noise, just a slight tug with each wheel rotation
-No observable damage to tires (though I didn't check them especially closely yet.)
-No better or worse when braking
-EV so no engine revving/engine mount issue
-No accidents to suggest axle or tie rod damage
Suggestions on what sort of shop to take it to?

Thanks for the ideas. Took it to discount tire and both front tires had separations. Both replaced under certificate. (supertux, Sep 11, 2020 at 9:53am)

I had a hub start to go once and it was creaking pretty obviously. I'm not hearing any noise at all.
