Why don't you believe your mechanic when he said "scalloped tire?"

1. What is wobbling here, the tire or the rim?

2. Is the wobble radial (in and out radially), or side-to-side? One wobble per revolution, or several per revolution?

3. Scalloping is typically caused by play somewhere in the system - wheel bearing, ball joint, etc.
