Wobble at high speed?????

I started noticing that when I brake at speed over 60 MPH I get a wobble up toward the front of the corolla, Are my rotors bad, Doesn't seem as notable at slower speeds . Any ideas??? 2007 Corolla ce 37K miles

I'd guess it's your rotors. You feel it more at high speeds because your wheels are spinning faster.

Can you just turn the rotors and get rid of the Wobble? I plan on getting new pads. Just wondered if I need new rotors ,too!

Most likely warped rotors, you can have them machined or replaced altogether.

whoever cuts them will be able to measure and tell you if they are worth cutting, or that they are too worn (thin) and will meed to be replaced. If they they get cut too often, they are more prone to warping.
