Default Vibration after new tires

I just replaced my old Goodyear Wrangler junk for some new Pirelli Scorpions. With the old tires I would feel this vibration whenever I would depress the brake, so much so I could feel it through the steering wheel. I had just attributed it to the poor wearing of the Goodyears (the inside was down to belts, third set, you know the story). I also got a 4 wheel alignment with the last set (20k miles ago), but didnt get it this time since the car pretty much drove well, aside from the vibration.

I was wondering if the vibration was coming from a poor alignment, or something else. I wanted to get a feel before I dumped more money on an alignment if its not the cause.

Appreciate any help.

David

Default RE: Vibration after new tires

if you only feel it during braking, your rotors are probably warped. also, did you get the alignment done at a dealer? only the dealer can properly due an alignment on those cars
