Sounds like you have TWO problems

Vibration at speed is NOT related to Vibration When Brakes are applied

Are the rims Hub centric?Rims checked for runout? Spacers Installed? Tires checked for Runout? Decent shop Balance the rims ON the car? Also Inspect the Lower control Arm Bushings This is for The Vibration at speed

Vibration when Brakes applied sounds like a Brake rotor is defective
Have the brake rotors measured for runout..Do NOT resurface the rotors
Just replace the defective rotor/rotors..also look into CYRO treatment for the rotors..it helps the rotors last several tims longer
