When I brake at high speed my steering wheel shakes and brake pedal shakes.
I checked for warped rotors and they were well within spec. I'm going to see if my tires need rebalancing. I heard it could also be worn wheel bearings, though I'd think that wouldn't be just a braking problem. Anything else I should check? tia. --------------------  |

Very cheap and simple way to eliminate wheel / tyre problems. Rotate the wheels - ie front to rear and vice versa. If problem vanishes, then you know it's wheel/tyre related. If it stays the same, then it's the rotors.
