Problem when i brake. 99 trans am. Sometimes when I'm driving and I brake I feel like the car shakes or stumbles. I'm not slamming on the brakes either. It usually happens when I'm driving 50+ and I have to brake but no matter how slowly I brake it always feels like it shakes. How can I fix this?

As for other brakes, I haven't used any other brands, but many people on here have used Baer, Stoptech, RPM Speed, and others with varying degrees of success.

They used to be a sponsor on here, I'm not sure if they are anymore. I'll send you a PM with where I got them from and how much they were.

FireTA99, welcome to LS1tech!
I've been through a few dozen rotors in my time. I've bought cheap, expensive and high end really expensive rotors.
I've found that even the cheapest rotors perform almost on par with the most expensive ones. These days when I need rotors, I look for Plain Jane blanks, no holes, grooves, nothing. It's PADS that make the difference-and calipers in good working order. They need to slide properly on their pins-which should be greased.
I use YellowStuff pads from EBC. Worth the bucks.
When driving, the rotors get hot-especially after braking down from speed. Avoid puddles or getting the rotors wet when hot. Washing the car? See that steam coming off the rotors? That's your rotors warping.
