All wise ones 
On 89K now (58 plate), and developed a slight steering wheel wobble between 50 and 60mph on the motorway.
What could it be? - probably not disks/callipers/pads as it is present without braking, ARBs? Lower wishbone bushes? Track rod ends?
Tried swapping the wheels (front to back) but maybe need to try side to side next.
Any ideas?

What tyres?
Wheel balancing could be a reason. Certainly the first thing I'd check as it's cheap. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE
2010 D4 HSE (A bit bling)-GONE
2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE
2015 D4 HSE (A heated what?)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Surely the last!) PD1881 rims-GONE

Agree with LT
Generally unbalanced wheels most likely if the wobble is irrespective of braking
If wobble starts around 50-60mph my guess would be the rear tyres/whhels need checking for balancing, should only be a few quid per corner to spin and check at a tyre fitters ....................................................................................................

Hi Jarvis,
Wondering do you figure it out in the end? I have same issue with my 05 LR3 for over a year... I already changed wheel bearings ( right one has some play, changing improves a lot ), inner and outer tie rod ( improves a bit..), and checked tires with road force tire balancer ( within specs, but putting the better pair at front improves the wobble for sure ). Tires can't be perfect, so the vibration must come from the tires, but something else must be wrong to let the steering wheel wobble...
Thanks,
