Default wobbly tire?

Today I managed to go up a hill that was a little to steep at the top and the wheeler went back down the hill by itself. It took a hard bounce off the front right tire. After getting it upright and going, I notice my tire wobbling about an inch or so in the each direction. Obviously something is bent. My question is, what should I be looking for? Is this something I can fix or will I be needing a new part or two? If I need new parts, are they gonna be real expensive or relatively cheap?

Thanks in advance,

Ryan

sblt said it all. If it is the rim then it sould not be too expensive but if it is the hub spindle then you are looking at more money to fix it. I would switch the front tires around and see if the same wheel still wobbles on the other side. If it does then you need a rim. If the same side wobbles then it may be the spindle.
Good luck
