Buckled? Has it been kerbed in this snow?

Also you say they were balanced, where they balanced to 0-0, and do you know if they were balanced static or not and lastly are they alloys? if so did they clean the rim first before appling the stick on ights (if used) if not they could of fallen off. if they were done less than 14 days ago take it back and they should check/re blance if they are out

Its also possible the tyres are giving out. I had this trouble on my old Frontera. They were balaced three times and still it happened. It was decieded that the wires in one of the tyres were gone and the wheel at speed would lose balance causing wobble. I would test this by swapping one of the fronts for the same side rear and seeing if the wobble disappears, then the same with the other side. If the wobble disappears or you find the tail starts to feel funny them you will determine the wheel at fault.

good advice.

Might also be worth checking steering joints. A decent amount of play in a track rod end for example can cause steering wobble. Could also explain why it pulls to one side as the tracking would be out.

I had a car like this once it had farly new tyres I tried everything until on day when looking at it I jacked it up and spinning the wheel I noticed the tyre was slightly and only slightly twisted. Apparently it happens often nothing you can do but replace it.

tracking and balancing didn't help in my sitution. The wheel deformed when going over 30 mph so it couldn't be detected. As I said I swapped front for rear to see if the wobble moved, then got the bad tyre replaced.
