I would put them on the "good" side, but there are some questionable individuals among them (namely those who become Ringwraiths).

They have been treacherous humans for centuries namely the 'Easterlings', and who could forget 'Ulfang the Black', who betrayed the Sons of Feanor, in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad. I think a good example that everybody will know is Gríma Wormtongue, he was a rotten apple, and even in other versions(Unfinished Tales), he betrayed Saruman to the Ringwraiths.
Melkor thought that Men were easy to sway(good/evil) and corrupt and many proved so. Look at how Sauron made the 9 powerful men(some where Númenóreans) his slaves(Ringwraiths).

The Druedain/Woses/Wild Men were men

Turin joined a party that were called Gaurwaith(Wolfmen), but they were 'Woodwoses', Housless and Desperate Men-Outlaws. I would say that Ghân-buri-Ghân, and his men, were a little different, I don't see them as outlaws, more wildmen.
In some cases, yes there is a "Clear line between good and evil", but in some cases its hard to tell what the evil exactly is, and if it is all that bad.
