Braking causes steering wheel to shake?

Now when you say overheat the rotors... what are you referring to exactly? As in the pads are a significant upgrade over stock and surpass the ability of the stock rotors to divert heat? Like brake ducting will be a good idea?

The pedal feel remained the same throughout my 2-day event and there was really no fade whatsoever! As a plus, my 'Brembo' writing is now a nice yellowish vs the stock white writing!

My wheel shook like crazy so I bought new brakes. Before I put them on I put on some GF210s and got it aligned and the shaking went away. Now the rotors and pads are in my closet till I really need them.
My advice is get an alignment.

The only fix for extensive uneven deposits involves dismounting the discs and having them Blanchard ground - not expensive, but inconvenient at best. A newly ground disc will require the same sort of bedding in process as a new disc. The trouble with this procedure is that if the grinding does not remove all of the cementite inclusions, as the disc wears the hard cementite will stand proud of the relatively soft disc and the thermal spiral starts over again. Unfortunately, the cementite is invisible to the naked eye.
or just buy new rotors and do it right. im not preaching. i messed mine up too.
BUT WITH 5K MILES YOU SHOULD BE FINE...
