Default Problem with breaks (Vibration )

I changed my font pads (with Honda pads) and rotors (from lordco) and I get a vibration when I break, this never hapened before. Do you think the new rotors are warped ?

thanks for the help.

No. Did you sand the wheel hubs smooth before putting the new rotors on? If not your rotors don't have a level surface to sit on and will runout/pulsate. If you did sand the hubs and still have a pulsation you could have a wheel bearing or hub issue.

I had my rotor changed and the first time i drove it, it kinda vibrates. It may take a while to get it set in. Maybe 500 miles? Drive it for a week. The Vibration should be constant.

If you feel a pulsation after replacing the rotors (the pedal shudders under your foot when braking) something is not right. Pulsation does not go away with break in and should not be constant.
