Default High speed vibration

HI there, my car¡¦s steeling wheel vibrate a lot when I brake at high speed- 185km +, I just have a new rotor fitted. What wrong with it? I have Tein RE suspension and the Skunk2 camber kit fitted. The man who look after my car said the vibration is coming from the camber kit, what do you guy think? Thanks in advance

was the vibration there before the rotor install? was the camber kit installed prior to the rotor or at the same time? if the camber kit was already in there before the rotor, sounds to me like the surface of the hub was not cleaned before the rotor was installed and it is not sitting flush on the hub.

Thanks Kkim, the problem is I can't recall I have the camber kit or the rotor first.

when you changed brake rotors, did you change the brake pads too? if not, they might have uneven surface and cause shaking.

new rotors are not allway true, get them cut ever so slightly.
