    Hello community, I have a wobble rear passenger tire while driving , I don’t hear noise of wheel bearing going out, but is it just my eyes, whenever I check it from my passenger side mirror while driving I can see the wheel wobbles. I don’t see this from my rear driver side tire, that one is straight when I’m driving . Thanks

    take the tire off and make sure there isn't something between wheel and the hub. Make sure the lugs are tight. Is the wheel bent?

    Take it to a good tire shop, have them remove it and run it on their balance machine. Determine if it's the rim or the tire. If all is good then the other alternative is a bent axle or similar. It could be something like shifted or broken belts, even a bent rim isn't the end of the world, you may need to look a bit but you should be able to find another one in the same style.

    Aftermarket wheels/tires? Stock width tires don't stick out far enough to be visible from in the cab via the side mirrors.

    Watching rear tires in the mirror can be deceiving.

    Make sure it doesn't have a dirty patch or some kind of mark on the tire causing it to look like it is wobbling. If it was wobbling enough to see it you would for sure feel it.

    Swap that wheel with another one (like a tire rotation) and recheck

    Update I checked the tire and the rim and they look tight to me . And the lug nuts are tight as well.
