yet another rotor question.

How do I know what to do? I own a 2000 4wd v10. The rotors were turned once before and it eleminated shaking/vibration. Now It is back and the driver side tire is cupped toward the inside. 75-80 mph horrible vibration. Bought new tires and vibration is gone at speed but brakes still pulsate badly so I know I need rotors. But what caused my tire to cup so bad, the rotor? shocks? allignment? Since I am going to put new rotors on I know all vibration will be gone but I don't want to ruin my new tires if there is something I'm missing, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, should I replace all 4 rotors or just the front ones.


Thanks.

I would have the alignment checked. Shocks can cause uneven tire wear, but alignment is the cause most of the time. I don't think that warped rotors can cause that problem.
