I ran slowly (like 2 mph) into the curb and scratched my wheel. It isn't bent, and I had it balanced but it still wobbles. Is there some part I should check or replace? I notice it when the car hits 60 or so. Any info would be appreciated before I hand it over to the dealer...

Another possability is a slight bend in the tire sidewall. It doesnt take much to bend teh sidewall of a tire. The right hit at the right angle can do it. if you have a full size spare put it on and then hit the highway and see if the wobble is gone. If not check the tire itself. it will be hard to find but on a high speed balancer, if the tread is bent, you will see the tread sharply change direction then come back int he area where the sidewall is bent.
