By that description I guess you mean a lumpy feely whilst moving?? If this is what you mean check the tyre is seated correctly. Most tyres have a line around the side wall close to where the tyre meets the wheel rim. This line should be equal distance from the wheel rim all round the tyre/wheel on both sides. It can usually be rectified quite easily by deflating the tyre and re inflating. Sometimes you need to add more bar/psi than you expect to "seat the tyre bead" correctly. Then adjust to normal pressure.
Also could be bent wheel? Spin it and look down it for trueness. May be loose spokes? Adjustment require if so.
Or........even a flat spot on the tyre from heavy braking and skidding.?
