Messed up brakes???....need advice

Hey,
So anyway whenever I'm driving anywhere from 50+ and start slowing down, i feel the car shakes, my seat vibrates and the steering wheel vibrates too. This just started up like a week ago. I think it might be somethin with my rotors. Any ideas? If they're pads tho, what are some good brake pads out there?
Thanks

brakes

You are correct in assuming that it is the rotors. They may be warped which means you need to get them resurfaced or buy new rotors. (good time for an upgrade to cross drilled) As far as pads go, that is most likely not your problem but if you want to upgrade pads do a search on the forums. Off the top of my head, depending on what you are looking for, Porterfields, Axxis, and Raybestos all make good pads for the max!
