Check your CV joints are greased, Wheel bearings have no play in them and are pressed correctly, Centre hub nut is done up property (120Nm) will the split pin installed.

Could also be a wheel out of balance or a tyre with a weak spot in it, jack up one side of the car at a time and drive it in first, check the tyre has no bumps in it

Mine aren't greased at the moment (lazy and yet ANOTHER boot split).

One has started creaking, and the whole car shakes like hell when slowing down

Will sort this weekend

Have you jacked it up and had a squeeze? You'll be able to tell if they're greased etc.
