you could try a front end alignment and have your tires been rotated and some things i have been reading about on some other sites point to adding a steering stabilizer to your front end it sounds like you are not the only one who has had this problem

Well I think the tires need to be balanced but its weird because if I lock the hubs in it goes away

check your steering stabalizer, also check all play with bushings an ball joints, etc, its weird that when you lock your hubs in it goes away. does it do it at all when there locked or just not as much?
