gen 7 Steering Wheel Shaking at High Speed?

Hey guys, When driving around 80 mph I notice my steering wheel starts to vibrate abit and when I step on the brakes it would vibrate even worse.. Could it be that my wheels are unbalanced? Maybe a wheel alignment?? Help guys... Thanks

If the steering wheel shakes at speed, one or more tires are out of balance or a wheel is bent. If it only shakes when braking or it gets worse when braking you kikely have a warped brake rotor. All of this information is readily availble if you would only read.
