do the rears as well. Could also be buckled wheels or ouit of round tyres but these should of been icked up on the balencing machine.
Also drive shaft ujoints

Could be alignment or suspension bushes or tires.

Swap fronts to rears to check.

Check your tie rod joints, ball joints and wheel bearings while you're at it but my money is on a drive shaft issue

9 times out of 10 a wheel shake is due to tyre unbalance or out of round.
