Default front end shakes

ok my car for some reason gets a funny shake only when im on the gas in 1st and 2nd by 3rd you dont feel it or if you baby the gas you dont feel it.
someone said i have bent rims so i swaped rims and still shakes.
also when my axles were bad(c-v joints clicking) i didnt notice it as much but now that ive swapped axles it seems worst. so where should i go next if its not the rims or axles?

*edit* ive also had an alinment done

Sounds like a bad Cv...

i had one that popped out of one of the ends so the bearings where not in the right place..

sounds like one of the cv's u put in is bad. possibly the driver side one. my car shook under load like that. i replaced the driver side axel with a new one and its gone now.
