Hey team as most of you know I have been having these vibration issues for a while and replaced pretty much everything had it to the mechanic who couldn’t find anything wrong had been really getting into this weekend now my rotors both front most definitely have warp when spinning freely with brakes removed and hubs bolted on most definite mechanic seems to think it can’t be the issue as I have no wobble when braking either through steering or brake pedal really put some pressure on the bearing not a single bit of movement from bearings How can the rotor be warped and not have the shaking when braking is this possible or is it a different issue I’m obviously going to replace the rotors I just don’t want to get new rotors and see the same problem can I have rotor warp without the pedal vibration when braking cheers team

Just imagine at speed how your warped rotors could throw your wheels out of balance, after all they do use weights to balance your wheels to keep them straight.

Rims not round, drive shaft out of balance. Wrecked shock absorber. Rooted rack end.

Are the front hubs ok? When they replaced the rotors did they clean the hubs properly to make sure there's no run-out? If there's **** left on the hub, you can get high spots so the new rotors don't sit perfectly flat. This throws out balance and at speed will be more noticeable.
