To Brake or Not to Brake......that is the Question

So, I've started to notice a small 1/8" shake on my steering wheel ONLY WHEN I brake. It's more noticeable at +30 MPH. All new tires and balance about 5 months ago.
The wired thing about it is that it mostly happends in the mornings and after work (10 hr shift). This makes me to think it's a warped rotor (since it tends to go away after heating up/ 20 mins of use).
The rotors and pads seem to be nice and thick, but I don't know what the minimum thinkness is allowed. Any advise would be appreciated.
