Centric Rotors vibrate
I have a 2011 G37xS sedan. I have been noticing the above 40mph when I brake there is a big of vibration, feel it in the seat and steering wheel. I had installed Centric rotors (front/back) back in July 2017 along with new pads and did the whole bedding process. I drive about 15 miles a day. I kept reading it is probably not warped rotors but pad deposit. I went ahead and tried to clean them out by doing several 60mph down to 10mph braking with no luck. Just few days ago I went ahead and replaced all the pads with new pads and bed them in. It still feels the same, great stopping power but not smooth. Anything else I can do other than replace 4 rotors again?

Why do you think it is a caliper that is binding? Even if that is the case, is there any way of knowing or does one just rebuild all the calipers? I have done the passenger rear before but it is not a hard job.

Solution was to replace the rotors. I purchased 4 new rotors from RockAuto. I went with coated Raybestos rotors, came to about $108 and they are coated and should not rust.
