no they wont be, vibration through the steering wheel could be your alignment or many different things. Check it over, make sure you installed the disks correctly.
It is known for saxos to do this at about 80mph anyway specially lower models.

It is when braking yes, checked over the front end also noticed that ma tyres are wearing out on the inside,It's had 2 allignment checks in the last 6 months, The discs where marked right n left, also the guy that fitted them is quite a perfectionist, so i doubt it's a lack of copper slip on the pads etc
