New brake Rotors with newish brake pads?
Hello everyone,
I replaced my rotors and brake pads about 9 months ago, (brembo oem rotors, and Endless mx72 brake pads). It worked amazing the first 5 months but theres been a lot of violent vibration when braking on higher speeds after 5 months of regular driving (no track at all). Can anyone tell me what caused this so I can hopefully prevent it in the future?
I'm also replacing the rotors again because of that reason but with mx72 brake pads costing me close to 800 dollars total, I do not wish to replace the brake pads. Should i keep it with new rotors, or should i get new brake pads as well?

It sounds like you did not bed the pads appropriately, allowing high spots to develop on the rotors. Go through the bedding process without fully stopping the car. You need to do it on a road with no stops whatsoever until your rotors are completely cooled. I use the interstate for this reason.
You also need to completely degrease the rotors before bedding the pads.
