Car started to vibrate a lot more after installing the AFS 10.5's and Nitto NT 555R's. Wondering if anyone else experienced this and what the fix is?

I called the Ford dealership and asked how much replacement pads were and they said $200 for front and $80 for rear. Seems a little pricey. Then he informed me that motorcraft makes a set that they also offer which are considerably cheaper. Fronts for $100 and rear for $40. Is this the best way...
