For future reference, if it starts at lower speeds and/or in the steering wheel is usually the front tires. Higher speeds and/or in the seat is usually the rear tires.
How many miles do you have on her? If balancing doesn't take care of it and you have a pretty good amount of mileage, check the ABS sensors to make sure they're not caked up with metal brake flecks. That keeps them from feeling the wheels moving then they think "holy cow, he's doing 90 and the wheel is locked up" and start fluttering to release the pressure. That one gets violent when the speed gets up there.
