I changed out my summer rims to put on my snow tires today and noticed the inside edge of my passengers side tire is worn right to the metal bands. The car had just started a little vibration around 55mph, but only at that speed. When I put on my winter rims I noticed the whole front passenger side feels loose, even with the rim on tight. Whats my problem guys, how much do you think it will cost to fix, and will I need an allignment after its done as well? thanx in advance everyone

Sounds like the bearing is bad. Think they run about $100ish.

I just changed both front bearings 2 summers ago, don't think its that, I'm leaning towards tie rods or control arms, anyone know how to tell which problems these cause?

bad cv joint, bad strut mounts, bad wheel hub, bad alignment..could be a lot of things causing camber to rub your inner tire sidewall
