Warped Rotors?

When I slow down from higher speeds (45mph or so) my steering wheel shakes pretty bad, and when I get to a near stop, it feels like the rotors are warped - is it the rotors for sure or could it be uneven brakepad wear or something like that?

Does the pedal pulse too? Depending on the year or your car the front rotors aren't real expensive, like 25-75 bucks. Usually they can turn the rotors if they're not worn down to for or warped to bad though.

yeah you've probably got warped rotors. Not sweat though, there not that hard to change and not expensive either! Shoot it there not that bad you could even get them turned for a few dollars!
