"mud in the tires"....some contaminant has latched itself onto the wheel where you cannot see it and thrown it off balance...otherwise one of the balancing weights has fallen off~

I forgot to mention the "Death Wobble" presented on F-250 Super Duty Trucks. Lots of theories out there - mostly under inflated tires - Look up "Death Wobble-Ford" on YouTube. Some examples and some attempts at fixing it. It's a design flaw.
