Have you ever curbed it? or previous owner.Check the side walls for bulges and use your fingers if you have to, as like mine they were hard to detect by eye

Have you got the same tread pattern on both tyres?
Are the tyres marked with a rotation arrow, and if so is it pointing the right way?

Just jack it up, no need to put it in gear, take wheel off, turn the wheel do the calipers pointing inward and spin the disc so you can see the edge and check if there's and side to side movement.

Na wouldn't cause wheel wobble. Have you checked the bolts are all done up correct lengths etc. I've had problems in the past with after market wheels and spacers where bolts have been a tad to long, you think you've tightened them up but it's that tiny bit thats causing you to have wheel wobble.
