Default Shake and Brake going on

I've noticed a slight shaking in the steering wheel when applying my brakes recently. Would this problem be a front rotor out of round, or a rear rotor out of round? Front rotors replaced 40k ago with new pads. . .rear rotors turned and new pads on at same time (40k ago). Still plenty of braking, but the shaking is not good. Too much "shake and brake".

The problem was front rotors. . .I replaced the front rotors and also put on ceramic brake pads. . no more shaking in the steering wheel when I apply the brakes.

Yea...Front Rotors would have been my guess, and going with ceramics...good call. I just put them on my bird and the thing I like the most is being able to go a month without having to polish the rims....very low dust. (Not no dust...LOL)
