6 month old rotors warped ?

Hey guys. Had all pads and rotors replaced about 6 months ago and notice my steering wheel shakes when I am braking. Check them and plenty of meat left on them. I got new wheels going to 19 inch andiameter wondering if they are warped ?

OEM from the dealer? Either way so ask them to turn the rotors.

No they are after market. Heard turning them is not a good idea.

Light surface turning can get rid of pad debris and any warpage. Are they drilled/slotted?

No they are not drilled or slotted. You think I should just have them turned and should be good to go?

I can almost guarantee the issue will be back after turning rotors and driving similar distance. The rotors are not warped, they are uneven. The issue can be caused by, rotors, pads or your driving style.
Short term, yes, turning the rotors or installing new rotors will fix the issue. If rotors are grooved, so will be the pads and I suggest replace them again.
It helps if you provide brands of parts used.
