Rear rotors?

When I brake lightly, I feel like the brakes pulsating like when your front rotors are warped. Would the same thing happen if the rear ones are warped as well? I feel it when I brake lightly, but if I brake a bit harder, it's smooth again. What would cause this? And I can kind of hear the vibration coming from the rear. Any help?

yeah if their warped they will have a similar feal. They are cheep so its not that big of a deal like 20 a peice or somthing I was going to have mine turned befor and the store told me how much new one were, also they wouldent turn them cause they have no tolerance for ware.
My fronts had the same thing happen and if your shure its not them its most likely your rear.

Shoot, my rears were like $75 a piece...much more than the fronts (this is advance auto, and they're not very good ones either)

If the fronts are warped you will feel a vibration in the steering wheel. If the rears are warped you feel the vibration in the car =]

Very easy to change but buy some good ones with a lifetime warrenty so you won't have to buy them again.
