If your new antenna is like mine, then you will never have the "carwash" problem again.

My right rear wheel is wobbling apparently. Does anyone have an extra stock rim / tire I could pop on there to see if it's my rim that's bent?

If you wanna come to Frederick this week, I can help with that. I work 7-7 Monday and Tuesday, but I'm off Wednesday.
EDIT: Just checked maps.google, and that's a looong drive for something so small lol. My offer stands if you need it, though.

i still think that maybe the tire in unbalanced. caused it to wear odd... but im going to crazy rays tomorrow. i can see if they got any there.
