are my rims unbalanced???

hey guys im just curious, i got oz rims with 225 50 18 tires, they are pretty big

when i roll slowly in first gear the car seems to wobble up and down, also when i take a right turn at about 30mph the traction controll keeps cutting power, but not when i turn to the left...

could it be an alignment issue or is it possible the rims are bent??

If you didn't have these issues with the other tires my guess would be something is up with the new ones. Your going to have to take it to a tire shop.
