Tire wobble is terrible! Any suggestions?

In your title you say the tires wobble and in your post you say the wheels wobble. Which is it? If its the tires baby powder inside the tire will help keep the foam from getting bunched up in the tire.
 
I have a considerable amount of wheel wobble too . I've took it apart and everything seem good,put the wheels back on and still some wobble only a high speed not sure what to do about it . I'm going to drive it until it breaks then I'll fix it.
 
Washers! Behind the hex, and underneath the wheel nut. Should tighten the play up.
 
Does the wobble move with the tires if you move the tire from one side to the other or front to rear, or does the same axles have the wobble? might be a bent axle, one of my wraiths I bought used has a bent rear axle, I just got new replacements and need to swap them.
 
They would be metal. There are these angled ones in there stock and if I'm remembering correctly, They are behind the wheel in between the knuckle/bearing. Just pull one of those out and take it with you to a local hobby or craft store. Then just find something with the same opening size and maybe a bit smaller over all size.

This is just a an idea off the top of my head as I have not had wheel wobble issues with my wraith. Just a suggestion to maybe help you out.
 
I used Traxxas brass bushings to replace the outer knuckle bearings on mine. It helped a ton, almost eliminated all the wobble. Traxxas part number is 1675. Its a 14 pack, for under $5, so it will last you a while
