Default Rumble under car between 20 -30 mph

2001 V70XC 170,000 wife mobile
I do not drive this car often so the Mrs. tells me that the car isn't right. While accelerating from 20 to 30 there seems to be a wheel out of alignment. Front left side with vibration transmitted to steering wheel and under ones right foot. Drive shaft, front axle CV,,any ideas?

I would try to remove the driveshaft and see of the vibration goes away.
If not check the tires.

Also, try swapping the tires front to rear. That is an easy way to tell if it is a tire or something else.
