I changed my front tire at 9000 miles (stock IRC). It wobbled at that point. My fresh tire (GT501) has been on for 600+ miles with no signs of wobble. When I was uninstalling/installing my old/new tire, I noticed that my old tire had begun to cup, and I feel that given the asymmetric tread and my love for hard braking, that the cupping of the tread may have been instigating the front end wobble. Who knows, though.
