OK so last Monday I got the TRD struts and springs installed and I hadn't noticed this before....but today coming to work doing around 80 and when I would brake I could feel a vibration. Could it just be that I need an alignment? Or do I have a warped rotor? I know I need to get an alignment once the springs settle, so I'm hoping that's all it is. Also, it only does it at a higher speed, if I'm doing 60 and brake it doesn't vibrate at all.

How many miles on the car? Who did the install? Sounds like it'd be an alignment issue, but if it was a half assed install, a rotor could be warped, or the brake lines might be loose.

22k on the car. It was a local shop that did the install. I am thinking its alignment cuz it is obviously off some. I just want to get some others opinions.

definitely alignment.....was my problem about two months ago after lowering 1.8"
it's probably your alignment...like everybody else said
but just a warning to people who actually wash their cars.....make sure your brakes are cool before you spray down your wheels or you'll get a vibration as well
