vibration on friends car.

hi guys. my friend just got one of his tires changed at just tires and now he has vibration when he accelerates to certain speeds like 30-40 mph. he drives a 2 door acura legend. i told him that his tire was unbalanced so he went back and balanced it. but it still wobbles/vibrates. kind like driving over little bumps. so far he has balanced it two times and its still there.
just tires said it was because his cv joint is going.
would it be something else or can just tires have f-ed up his cv joint on accident or does the cv joint just give out like that?
can someone shed some light on this?
thanks
