Either bad tires or bent wheels. If you can put the cart on a jack and spin the wheels you can see if the wheel is bent by watching the side of the wheel. If you look at the tread while the wheel is spinning and you see it jump at a certain spot you have flat spots in the tires. Flat spots are common on golf cart tires. Remember they are designed to be used on turf where you wouldn't notice the wobble. It's different on the hard, smooth roads. I have replaced the tires on my cart twice since I got here 6 months ago.
