I have the same problem on my 99 Viggen

Right at 55mph steady state driving, a low frequency wobble would hit the steering wheel. Not noticable at higher or lower speeds. Since the tires were due for replacing, I got a new set. Tire guy says he put the two bent wheels, the former right front and right rear, in the back where I would not notice them.
Well that made the situation worse, both the degree of wobble felt and it introduced a randomness it, but still only at 50-55mph. Since tires were eliminated and wheels were suspect, I pulled two 17 inch wheels off of my 9-5 and put them on the rear of the Viggen. Despite the dissimilar brand and wear of the tires, the wobble went away, so it must be the rims.
I scored some supposedly sound Viggen rims a few weeks ago on c-list and have them ready for my indie to swap out the bent rims, I will let you know how it goes.
