Struts would not cause vibration problems, A CV joint could, turn your vehicle in a parking lot hard right, make a circle than turn left make a circle ,if you hear a noises you have a cv joint problem. If you feel vibration on the steering wheel its in the front, if you feel it in the seat its in the rear.
Tires out of round & Balance very common as well brake rotors cause vibrations.
possible wheel bearing at fault. if it heard/felt more when turning or swerving and is a growling type noise, more than likley is. possible bad tire shouldnt be over looked. is abs light on? most often when wheel bearing is bad a speed sensor ( within wheel bearing ) will go open, setting abs light. vehicle needs to be ran on a hoist to try and duplicate noise/vibration.
I presume that is miles per hour. If the vibration is felt in the steering wheel, the problem is probably in the front wheels. If the vibration is felt in the seat, check the rear wheels. To check the rear wheels, if it is not posi traction, just jack up one wheel at a time and bring the speed up to half the odometer reading (one wheel turns twice as fast as two wheels). To check the front wheels just rotate to the rear one wheel at a time.
Also check for bent rims and defective universal joints.
If you get a bad vibration in your steering wheel at low speeds without braking it is either a bad tire or a bad rim. If you get a vibration at speeds around 45-50+ and goes away you probably have a balance issue. If the vibration only occurs while braking then your rotors are warped. If low speeds it shakes i'd take it to a shop to check your tires.
