Question My steering wheel shakes when i brake...

I have a 98 accord as my everyday driver, my problem is when i stop my stearing wheel shakes and makes a thumping sound my brake pads ar fine i have never hit a curb with my front wheels so the alignment isn't off though i dont think that would create that much effect but i don't know what else could be the problem, A little help Please?

what do you mean when you stop, starts to shake/makes noises when the car is stopped?
if u talking when the car drives might be:
ur tireroad's
end links

Yes there is a thumping sound when i brake and the steering wheel shakes crazy style, The rims are brand new and already ballanced and the tires a new too. Im thinking that maybe the steering collum is off ballance or something is loose, the shaking happens alot especially when i brake hard.

You need to fix that right away especially if it happens so often.
