tire pressure is very important and 20 is awfully low. make sure both front tires are balanced and inflated to the exact same pressure. even a 1/2lb can make a difference. of course, if you've been driving on under-inflated tires you may never get rid of the wobble. go with what the tire is marked minus -5lbs or so. NOT what the manual says- how do they know what tire you're running...

My SPF doesn't have the wobble problem that I can feel, but I had a guy pull along side me once and indicate the rt front rim was wobbling a little. Maybe the knock-offs aren't tight enough...

I have Dunlop GT Qualifiers on my SPF. Not a "top-shelf" tire. I plan on replacing them soon with kumho or a better, lower profile tire. Be careful with the GT's sidewalls. don't catch a curb or you're likely to rip the sidewall.
