Could be hub pivot bearings also.
With the wheel jacked up, watch the hub while you wobble the wheel and see if you can see any movement there.
If not then there's a good chance it's your wheel bearings.
Pull them out and inspect them before tightening them up as they may be worn.
Good chance to repack them too, both sides!
Cheers

After fitting 35's my drivers side wheel bearing would work its way loose over time so I fitted GU locking system. Fixed the prob.
The conspiracy theorists were right!
