wheel bearings do not cause vibrations
worn front end parts do not cause vibrations
alignments have nothing to do with vibrations
If you have had a vibration since day one and just got new tires, I would suspect that those wheels are bent. But either way steering wheel vibrations are normally from a tire/wheel out of balance.
vibration while braking at high speeds is a warped rotor. Usually the front rotors. The rear brakes can get warped rotors too, they are just harder to diagnose, depending on how the parking brake is setup.

^^ Are you saying that I am wrong and that wheel bearings, alignments, loose tie rods and ball joints, and worn bushings cause vibrations?
That's fine, just continue spending hundreds/thousands of dollars replacing every steering/suspension component on the vehicle and pray that it fixes it.
