Brake problems 1994 Civic

I put in brand new front pads and rotors last month due to a crazy
amount of shimmy in the brakes. Fixed the problem wonderfully. Problem
is, 4-5 weeks later, I am starting to occasionally get a tiny bit of
that shimmy back. What could be the problem?? I made sure to
completely clean off the brake slides, checked for burrs, and recoated
with the Sil-Glyde that they gave me. Are the pistons going bad??
Thanks for the help.

 

re-torque the wheels in at least 2 stages - 1324, 1324, then report back
if the problem persists.

Are these aftermarket pads and rotors?

 

Well, yes. I am pretty sure that Honda does not have lifetime brakes
available, so I bought the most expensive Autozone brand. I never had
this problem until the last 10-15,000 miles or so, and I'm running a
194,000 mile 1994 Civic.

Aftermarket "lifetime" pads are often too hard and overheat the rotors. Are
they blue, or show signs of heat-glazing?
