Your wheels are balanced with a small metal weight before being put on your vehicle. This may have come off one of your front tires. Low tire pressure can also cause front end wobble. Front end misalignment is another cause. Tire damage, like striking a curb can cause front end wobble.

You need to have your tires checked for a slipped belt, also if you get a shake in the steering wheel when you apply the brake you need to have the brake rotors re-surfaced or replaced.

Severe Vibrations when driving. going 3mph + besides the wobble in steering wheel

This is very serious and I would advise not driving it AT ALL, until a cause can be identified. Although you said it's "not the front end wobble", it sure sounds like there still is something wrong in the front end and/or the alignment. It could be broken engine mounts, missing hardware/very loose control arms, steering box connections, loose steering column, transmission mounts, driveshaft bearings/mounts or even loose lug nuts on the wheels just to name a few. Please have the car safely raised on jacks and have a mechanic or knowledgeable person look underneath for broken/damaged/missing parts.

Steering wobbles when driving

Improperly balanced wheels can cause the wheels to wobble at speed which can be felt through the steering wheel. A local tyre shop can test the wheels for balance and make the necessary adjustments to the wheels by adding weights to even out the balance.

Steering wheel wobbles while driving

If it seems to happen more when rounding a curve than on the straight, it may be your CV joint. I'm not sure but I think you can replace the half shaft that connects the wheel to the engine. Otherwise, you may have to find a press to press out the old one. It's kinda like a U-joint on rear wheel drive cars. Or it could be the tire out of balance, bad tire, bad stabalizer bar. Gonna have to jack it up and get under it and start shaking stuff to find out what's loose. GOod luck and have fun....
