Default Slight judder under braking

Evening all,

I'm running k-sport 8 pot 330mm on the front of my 04 WRX and EBC grooved and drilled discs with updated pads in the rears (standard 2 pots).

Had them coming on a year now and have noticed recently under firm braking there's a vibration in the steering wheel, always had a slight one but seems a little more recently. The k-sports were fitted by a well known tuner garage so can't imagine any problems there. I know they can be fiddly to setup, and if done wrong can vibrate.

There's no wobble or vibration when not braking so can't imagine its a wheel bearing or balance issue? Or could it?
