WHY WOULD MY CAR WOBBLE, AS IF THE TIRE WILL FALL OFF AFTER I JUST GOT MY 2 FRONT CV JOINTS REPLACED? WOULD THIS BE AN INDICATION THAT IT WAS NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY OR DO I NEED TO BALANCE AND ROTATE TIRES AND GET AN ALLIGEMENT. MY CAR DID NOT DO THIS PRIOR TO REPLACING THE AXLES.

Very faulty installation. I would look it over well. Several things come to mind. For instance, the lug nuts may not be tight. The axle may not be fully inserted in to the tranny or there are a few bolts that may be loose. Please don't put yourself or others in danger.
