Just when going 60+ And it was worst when braking from those speeds. What jkdv8 said. You may get a little vibration in the front while cruising at high speed with one or more warped rotors. I've noticed that on the big Sport and I also noticed it when the tech did the brakes on my little '97 last Jan. Its not much, however. I noticed it on the little Sport more by the lack thereof after the brake job. jkdv8 is right, though. If you have a caliper that's not retracting AND a warped rotor on the same wheel, it'll vibrate like hell. Been there, got the tee shirt. Glad to hear things are working good now. Edward

Yeah, it was awful, but lucky me all that is gone now. The rotors were warped but could be brought back to life with a resurfacing and the pads had uneven wear and also looked like hell from overheating and crystallization.

Start saving for new rotors now. Resurfacing will even out the rotor but the damage has been done. In fact I'm surprised you found anyone that would do it. Especially as bad as it sounded your's were. Once a rotor gets hot enough to warp it affects the heat treating. In my experience (having done this a couple times), I've never had one last more than a year before I was right back where I started. Edward

I will start saving for new ones since I will not do the resurfacing thing twice on them when its time to get new pads again. Hopefully they will give me a year without vibrations so I can clear some debts and get new ones.
