I don't know if this is your problem but some years ago I tried some cheap front pads from NAPA (when I say cheap I mean in the 50 - 75 dollar range). I had to brake hard on the interstate from 80 mph. Back on the road (I got run off) the steering was shaking like crazy. As I drove on, it slowly went away - pad deposits. If I had kept using the brakes hard this would have kept reoccurring.

Don't turn your rotors, just Rebed the pads.

Those same Hawk pads cured my brake pulse problem too. We worth the money.
Didn't have to resurface the rotors either.

Go get another balance and get you slightly bent rim straightened.
