Did you clean the mating surfaces for the new discs? Did you bed the new discs in properly? Nothing else is loose on the front end, suspension bolt or something?

nope, no ABS. Wheel balancing is looking to be a likely cause

Had my wheels balanced today, they came up on the machine at 35. They are now perfectly balanced but the problem is still there
