Vibration

Vibration
08 GT. Just recently changed my front rotors and pads and tie rod ends while I was in there. Then took the car directly to have 4 new tires and alignment done. Well, now I have a vibration, out of balance feel, and occasional brake pulsation that I never had before. Annoying as hell. I took it back to the tire shop and had them re-balance all 4 tires. Better, but still there. I believe its a static balance, not dynamic. Anyway, I may have blown it by buying cheapo rotors and Wagner Quiet ceramic pads from RockAuto. I had EB rotors and Hawk pads prior, and never a problem. Thoughts?

Well, I turned the EBC rotors (plenty of meat left) and replaced the cheap ones from RockAuto. I properly torqued all for rims and so far (could only do 65 on local streets) the vibration is gone. I'll know for sure next week when I hit the highway again.

Cool. I always have tires mounted and balanced, then I put them on myself. I know that's not always feasible, so at least tell the shop not to impact them on. Watch them if they will let you, but most shops won't let you in the bay due to insurance concerns.
