Shakes or Wobbles problem
2000 Lexus GS 300 Automatic 155200 miles

I just got this car from a used car dealership and while I did the test drive, everything ran smoothly. As soon as I got it home, within the next day or two, every time I went to brake, the car started to shake. Now it shakes a little harder and I feel it mostly in the steering wheel. What could be causing this?
