I have a 1997 pontiac grand am quad 4 engine, 130,000 miles... I had a problem with my steering wheel shaking after i brake, but I have replaced the pads in the front and rotors twice. I just replaced the rotors a week ago and the problem is pretty much gone but i still do have a small vibration in the pedal when i brake, more at higher speeds (70mph)... I figured changing the rotors would fix the problem but I have a feeling it is going to get worst again. these are aftermarket rotors cost about 17 dollars a piece the oem's are 95 dollars... is their a difference?

yes there is... aftermarket brands also have higher dollar rotors, which in fact make a great difference in braking, oem is the best way to go. it's all up to you at this point. rotors at 17 bucks a piece... i'm not surprised that there is still a vibration. go with the good stuff!!! i recommend it!! good luck :wink:
