Default corvette vibrating on the road

the other day, was very jittery, i thought it was the road so i travelled down a few well paved nice areas and stilld oes it. I checked tire presure, was ok, i checked brakes, driver's side was hot. but i jsut came to a stop from high way speed. jsut put new brakes a few weeks ago too, but I should look at them as they wore on an angle last time liek this /\ instead of ||. any ideas, i won't be looking at it until next spring as i've parked it for the winter.

If they wore on an angle like that you may have a bent caliper mounting bracket. Very common. That or piston on caliper got stuck

So does it vibrate only when you apply the brakes?
