Default Wheels shake violently under load

If I let off the gas they stop, but when I get on it, they start shaking so bad. IT's embarrassing not to mention annoying. Anybody know what the deal is and how to fix it?

TIA,
Chris

cv joints it may be...

take a look at the bushing in your suspenion parts. if they're all worn out that may also be it.

wheel bearings? i dunno. loose wheels? lol

I was told it might be the hubs arent tight enough and they prolly need greasing? Would that be it? I'm a complete noob to suspension, so how would I go about fixing that?

if its an older car it may be very hard to get the hubs off. but the wheel bearing is in there and they will make the wheel shake... mine does a lil bit on my integra, you can see it in my dyno vid. when i let off the front tire shakes back and forth lol. the ****** is a mess to drive and i also go off the road when i hit big bumps

ok, well since it is a CR
X with the B16 swap. What axels do I buy? It has hybrid axels right now. and I bought the car with the swap so I'm not sure what all was used. What do most people use and what should I replace them with? There is no possibility of it begin the hubs and bearings? I thin kim might try those first.... please let me know about the other info guys!
