Brakes vibrate and make noise

If I brake when I'm going 60mph or so the streering wheel vibrates hard. Also when I hit the brakes to stop completely the brakes make this cluncking sound right when the car is about to stop and it doesn't stop like it should, almost as if the brake calipers skip off the rotors. I also feel that in the brake pedal.

I already took off the wheels and the brakes have plenty of pad left and the rotors are not warped and they are smooth to the touch. Anybody know what's going on?

usual cause of such vibration:

1) unbalanced wheel and tire
2) warped rotor
3) shot wheel bearing

it is most likely the first two, but I would suggest you bring it to a mech to check it out since you mentioned that it doesn't stop like it should. G/L
