Car wobbles

My 95 993 wobbles over 100km/h. would a strut brace solve this?
Tks for any thoughts.

You don't have a problem a strut brace would fix. You either have a tire balance problem, wheel bearing problem, tie rod problem or loose lugnut problem. Possibly a front end alignment problem.

Could also be a bent wheel. Regardless, a strut brace will make NO difference for wobbling.

Could also be worn out ball joints on the a-arms.

The car has 20k miles and I suspect on bearings. I donīt hear the usual noise on old bearings but I feel as if there was no grease on them, like steel rubbing on steel.
I will check those things.

Tks for the info.
