That'd be my guess. Might try loosening all spokes and bringing back to true and tension. Happens to wheels that have been messed with a lot I find. I rode basic wheels for years @ 300 to 340 lbs with no troubles. Are you avoiding potholes, ruts and curbs?

Not the straightest rim, but a good buy for the money.
In my experience they build up really nicely.
