Default wicked vibration

I recently had new brake pads put on the rear of my 03 mustang. Ever since they were put on i have a nasty vibration in the car at cruising speed. Anyone know what caused this to happen?

Take it back where you had it worked on and tell them they made it start vibrating.

It's possible that the wheel lugs were tightened inproperly causing the wheel to not set flat against the hub/rotor.
Meat heads will air-wrench the lugs on in a circular pattern causing this.
