Default Wheel Vibrating

I was wondering everytime I accelerate the wheels seems like it is vibrating. I had just changed out my CV joint. Do you guys know what could be the problem? Thanks.

Maybe your wheel is out of balance. That would definitely make the car vibrate.

If your on the gas hard it may be wheel hop.

Or if at highway speeds you may need to have your wheels balanced

Might have lost a wheel weight. Might need to be balanced.

your wheel lugs could also be loose, or uneven. But it would rapidly get worse tho.

It is most likely one of the other things listed above. I'd check those first. balance rim/tire, alignment, lug nuts, air pressure, then move on from there if you find the same symptoms occuring.

I had a similar problem a couple months ago and it ended up being one of the axles. I put it on a friends lift and drive the car while in the air - you could see the axles out of round. See if you can have someone else do the same for you - if you have any friends, etc that have access to lifts. Start with the least expensive option - visable problems.

Then I'd go the following route:
1. Lug Nuts / Tire is on properly
2. Wheel Weights / Balancing
3. Alignment
4. RE-check/install axle.
