Just as I suspected.. Front lugs were a good bit over torqued and the back lugs are good bit under torqued.
Shortly after having my tires rotated last time at the dealership my rotors started to warp!
Might as well zaino these puppies while they are off.

Man I don't know if it's in my head or not but the brakes seem to be a lot better. I'm not getting the nasty shaking anymore! At first they felt a lil wobbly but after a few hard stops they feel like new 
I'm not sure if this is due to proper torque or cleaning out the brakes but something helped a lot

Just FYI, read the information on Stoptechs website. Vibrations caused by torqueing too much (severe conditions) can cause vibration, but will be easily remedied by redoing it and going through the brake bedding process once over. I've done it 10 times so far and it works. Costcos everywhere have wrenches, and if you've got a membership card they'll do it for free and fill your tires with nitrogen.
