Today when I was freeway 65+ driving and I would apply the brake, I could feel the 2 front wheels shake left and right along with the steering wheel a little bit. I am hoping its an alignment issue or I need to balance the tires again...Any Info???

warped rotors

 

already I only have 47K miles!!!!!

either your tires are worn, or your rotors are worn. i would check your tires first.

 

check tires, see if there are strange wear patterns.

put car on jacks, check front brakes.
sounds like warped rotors to me.

you should go to a shop and get those machined (if they're warped)
if you have been doing a lot of hard braking, that usually does it for brakes.

or maybe you need to get your brakes serviced, or pads changed. check it out and see.

 

yup rotors are warped....and it just developed overnight...I ordered some TYpe R pads from the dealer because I heard if you are machining rotors it better to install pads with them...

 

i had the same problem so i changed out the brakes first and it didnt help so i decided to resurface the rotors and that fixed all my problems. but it could also be a bent wheel or a worn out tire or cant really be an alignment probelm

 

I would just change out the rotors instead of turning(resurfacing) them. Not only will your rotors be thinner from turning, the likelyhood of the rotors warping again is very high.... not worth the effort in the end.

besides, as grampa already pointed out, R rotors are cheap. Consider them a wear item and just changed them when they're done...and if your rotors are warped... they're done.

 

sounds like the rotors to me.

 

autozone rotors own your aZZ..... $25 a piece for Legend rotorz - replace those warped stockies - it's worth it

btw: I daily drive my R and had to replace both front rotors and pads all around at about 48K miles - so it's probably time for you too...
