I own a Cadillac Deville 04 with 70,000 miles, i'm experencing front end wobble as if the tires are shaking, which causes other cars on the road to move out of the way, as if the tires are going to fall off. I've had them balanced 4 times since january and it's a temporary fix, it doesn't correct the problem, Why is this and how do i fix it?

If you have a problem serious enough to be seen by other drivers, then you have a serious issue. You either have a bad tire, bad wheel or some severely worn components. It should be very obvious to a trained technician.
