As a mechanic who does a lot of suspension work for a living, find out for sure what is wrong with your car instead of throwing parts at it. If you don't have a lift at least get it on 4 jackstands and start looking for the slack in joints and condition of rubber boots, and also spin the wheels to find bearing/rotational issues. Almost any issue (tie rod, ball joint, warped rim, bad tires, bad wheel bearings) can be visually/audibly diagnosed and pinpointed to the exact component. You have to pull around a little bit to find things, but worn ball joints and tie rods will reward you with an audible clunk and you can see the lost motion.
