I had rotors and drums turned/machined and changed the front brake pads and rear brake shoes. The problem started after i put in 22' rims at Sears. When it is really cold or raining it does not do it as much. I also installed some rear shackles to drop the truck 2'. It looks a bit low on the drivers side so i am guessing that needs attention. I have also read that i might need to change the alignment camber (i think) in order to realign the wheels since 22' wheels are very difficult to align. I Also read that i might need to change the ball joints since i cannot regrease because the newer vehicles have ball joins that require no regreasing, just change them out and drive on. This is on a 2008 GMC Sierra Single cab W/T with the new body style. I am pretty much fed up and running out of things to look at and money is not something i can afford to throw away right now. HELP!
Vehicle shakes when braking at low %26amp; high speeds. Rotors %26amp; drums plus brakes machined %26amp; changed?
Your problem could be uneven wear from the calipers (brakes) being loose or even just in poor shape from the manufacturer (it happens sometimes). Could also be a faulty wheel hub assembly . . . Our truck has the same problem and we haven't had the money to take care of either problem but we know that either could be it. . . calipers are easy to change, wheel hub assembly is a little harder to do, BUT if these are your problem, it's best to have them looked at soon. Either problem could cause worse more expensive problems, later down the road.

I would take it to a tire shop and have them check out the rim. Make sure they(Sears) didn't bend the rim when they were putting on the tires.
(1) tire or wheel out of balance or out of round (2) loose or worn wheel bearings (3) wore tie rod ends (4) worn balljoints (5) excessive wheel runout (6) blister or bump on tire
u may need new rotors turning them does not get rid of warps
