Drive for 5 minutes to cool the brakes then repeat the above from 60 mph down to 5 mph. Again drive long enough without touching the brakes to cool the brakes down. Repeat the above from 70 mph and then 80 mph. If you can, slow down from 80 mph a couple of times. Of course, always be safe. The above will remove any excess pad deposition on the rotors and will also condition the pads and rotors. See if the vibration under braking goes away.

Agree 100% as I have done this before to bed in rotors/brakes. This a lot like the old school process to break in a "built" motor.
