Swap front wheels to back. You won't feel it at the back unless it's really bad, so you can rule out wheels that way.

It doesn't sound like the wheels need balancing but if they did it doesn't happen at all speeds, tends to be about 50-60ish that you would feel it the most.

Wheel balance or buckling can come and go at various speeds.

I had a buckled wheel that was wobbly as hell at 60mph, but get up to 80 and it was smooth. That's because the wheel spins so fast it "skips" past the flattened/buckled bit. Imagine a car with square wheels, if it goes fast enough.... it can kinda drive. There was a mythbusters and everything.

Defo not wheels as they were fine as took them off my old car, it seems fine wen power off put wen push it gear stick moves bk and forward quickly and whole front ends shakes

Could it not be engine or gbox mounts, what power are you running?

Did the problem start when you put these wheels on or was it present before ?
