When I'm going above 55 or so and I apply the brakes, the car seems to shake... the pedal shakes and the steering wheel shakes. Lower speeds, it's just fine. What could that be?

I had the same issue. It's exactly what everyone is saying. I took mine to get replaced but the shop ended up just shaving them (said they were off because the car sat for most of the winter in New England cold) and now they're fine. It didn't cost me more than $50 for all 4 to be shaved, plus a tire rotation.
