Check your Tie Rods/Ball joints for play.
Make Sure your torqued the Steering Wheel Hub down.
Get your wheels balanced.

My guess: Your wheels are unbalanced.
Bring it to Speed Syndicate, and get them to check for play in your suspension arms while it's on the lift.
Hey man,

Thank you for your input. I've finally took the time to jack up my car to inspect each of the wheels. All lug nuts and steering wheel bolts have been tightened properly to specific torque. Front wheel bearings are secured with no play when being moved up and down but has a bit of play when moved in the horizontal direction. My friend says that is not normal but I argued that it's due to the steering that there should be a tiny amount of movement.

Thoughts?

In any case, I am having all the tires re-balanced tomorrow in a reputable shop nearby.
