Bad tire? Inner core damaged?
Car wobbles on accel only Once car is up to speed it is fine Motor mounts are new Axel shafts are fine and the fly wheel is not bent no missfire Only heavy accel does the frontend shake?
Check the tires! More than once, and just last week a bad tire was the cause of some interesting shakes, shimmies and wobbles. The steel belts inside the tire will separate and may not always be easily seen by the naked eye. A good tire shop can readily check the balance of each wheel. A $25 used tire and balance resolved my problem.

Why does the back of your car wobble?
The possibilities are, a bad tire with belt separation (most likely), a bent rim or a bent axle. If it only wobbles when the brakes are applied you may have a warped brake rotor or brake drum (which ever applies).
