More likely when the lug bolts loosend the holes in the rim got elongated.
The tire and wheel assembly are not running true.
Jack that wheel up and spin it to see if it is out of round; or put on
another wheel assembly and see if it is true.

Hey all. A friend of mine has a front wheel drive 4k that had new struts
installed in the front a few months ago. Her brother was driving it when 2
lug bolts came out and wheel was partly separating from the axle. After
putting the lug bolts back in, he drove it for a few days then it started to
vibrate bad enought so its scary to drive. All lug bolts are in, 15 inch
wheels. Could an axle be bent?
