Default Machine Rotors DFW

I am getting a strong shaking when I brake these days. I think I warped a rotor somehow and need to get them machined. Anyone have a suggestion for a good place to go in DFW (I live in Plano) that won't overcharge?

Personally, I would just replace them if they're warped. Maybe stoptech slotted OEM replacements. They cost nearly the same as OEM rotors.

O'reilly to machine them or replace them?

How much does replacement cost?

Also awhile back I had to slap a used tire on to pass inspection. I run 235's on the rear and this was a 225. I still haven't changed it to match, could this create the shaking while breaking problem? Maybe a balance issue?

i went to o'reilly to have them machined...they do resurfacing there..

as for the tire, you can alway have it checked at a tire shop....have them balance it and see? dontknow about the size difference....i doubt that would do what your saying, but then again ive never run with different sizes of tires between driver and passenger side..
