Well...turns out...it kind of was the axle flexing not the rim...Actually it was the axle bearing...

Check out the movement on the outer race...



This bearing started to fail in less than 100 street miles. Here in the first autocross lap I ran on it you can hear it already failing...Go to about 34 seconds in
