At higher speeds (usually60+) the cause will probably be wheel balance out on a rear wheel/s or perhaps a  damaged wheel due to potholes etc. Below 50, the cause is more likely prop shaft balance or a bulge in a tyre wall near the tread  :-/

.. and if you can't feel it through the steering, chances are it's a rear wheel. :y
