Default Brakes

I just put new rotors and pads on my car. It stops good but from 35 mph there is a crazy vibration going on. any ideas?

Sounds like the rotors are warped. Get them machined at an auto part store.

also they don't pull you all over the road. i can't say its a vibration. its just like a long vroo sound when your starting to at 35 and down. but you can feel it in the pedal a little.

Its the Zinc coating being removed by the pads. It should be gone in less then 50 miles of driving and braking.
