2005 RL rear wheel wobble (both wheels)...

Hi, guys! I did some poking around in the Wheel, Tire and Suspension search forum, and could not find what I needed, so here goes. I am noticing a wobble in both my rear wheels. I haven't had the car put on a lift yet, but I'm starting to suspect it's the wheel bearing hubs. I had both rear wheels computer spun at a local tire shop, and they came out arrow straight. I even had the front wheels swapped to the rear, took it out on the highway to be observed, and they wobbled also.

Before I take it to the shop to have it checked, do you guys think it's my hub assemblies or something in the suspension / drivetrain? Thanks in advance for your time.

Cheers!

Snoop

In addition, I checked the auto parts store to get pricing and availability on a hub assembly, and they said they needed to know if the car was manufactured in the USA, or Canada. Come to find out mine was manufactured in Japan?

I don't think they meant where it was manufactured, but rather which model type? Their is a USA model and also a Canada model. Slight differences, though I couldn't tell you off hand. I would have to look it up. Most likely it is the USA model. I am unsure how to find out which is which, though.

Chances are the VIN would tell you the car model, but for some reason people think that is sensitive information.
