I went to run my maxx on the street today, nice and warm day here why not. And when I would get up to high speed my right rear would almost shake my maxx off the street? I havnt noticed it putting around the yard only on high speed runs on asphalt. Could this be related to a missing pillowball cup that goes behind the hex in the knuckle? The hex is there and tight but the little plastic cup is missing?
 
that could be it. I lost one of caps and it made my tire wobble put a new one in and i was fine
 
Stupid me! I installed the pillowball cup (thanks NCNitro) and it was still doing it. Come to find out there was rocks a dirt in the tire from where it had came unglued on the back side. Problem solved.
