My front on one side wobbled until I added the torquing force of the axle nut. Otherwise the two inner races can slightly spread and allow a slight wobble. You might be able to test it using the bearing press to clamp the inner races together and verify the wobble is gone. The 340# of torque really clamps the inner races together. Or it might be in crooked... See if you can find plates and clamp it and spin the hub and see if it resolved. I think this is why the shop manual says not to roll the car if the axle nut is not torqued down. My bearings have been doing well for the last 2 years and 30 or so track days and I was nervous about that wobble at first too.
