Yes, your rotors are warped.
If you only feel it a high speed, they
are not so bad and can be faced/turned.

I warped a set of Brembo blanc in less time than the stock rotors...
Next time I will try or EBC rotors.

**** I think the same thing is happening to me.

the first set were ruined by ebc green stuff pads, now I am on hawk pads and the same thing, I get heavy vibration when stopping. I refuse to go back to stock pads though. I am a semi-heavy braker, so I need the extra bit.
