I recently bought replacement brembo blank rotors and pads in May. I installed them and everything seemed fine. After a while I had a lot of brake dust too much to even bother cleaning rims. I then had squeaking noises coming from front. The steering wheel shook too a little when braking at higher speeds. I only have front brakes the rears are drums. I bought new slotted/drilled rotors, and Akebono ceramic brake pads. Since I was told my rotors were warped. The shop installed them yesterday and he took the car for a test drive. He said it feels weird on the front right but that might be because of the slotted rotors since they are chromed. I drove it home and it seemed fine but when I hit brakes a little harder the steering wheel shakes side to side. Now tonight I was going down the highway about 50-60 and I tried to slow down to test them but not slamming on my brakes. The steering wheel shook like crazy thought I was gonna loose control. I never have felt anything like that in a car. The last rotors and pads were a lot better then that at those speeds. I am not sure what the problem is. I called the shop and they said could be calipers since I don't think mine have ever been replaced. If anyone knows anything or has had similar problems please let me know asap. Thanks
