Hello Everyone,
I've got a 98 Old 88 with 80K miles. I usually let my kids drive this car, but I've been driving it the past week. I've noticed that at higher speeds (50 MPH) when I hit the brakes the steering shakes. I'm assuming that I need new rotors--correct??
Also, what will happen if I just wait until I need new brake pads as well?
Thanks,
Stan

Sounds about right. Kids are hard on brakes...usually. lol. Rotors will warp a lot easier when they get thin too.
