Vibrations when braking

I purchased my 02 X 3.0 used and during the test drive didn’t really test the braking . After a few spirited driving sessions I noticed heavy vibrations when decelerating from speeds of 80-100mph range.

I’ve had the dealer and a local Midas (second opinion) check out the braking system. Although I have a ton of meat left on the pads and my rotors are well within spec, both agree that I need to replace both the pads and rotors in order to get rid of the vibrations.

The brakes on the vehicle I’m sure were never bedded nor was the vehicle driven by the pervious owner as spirited as drive.

QUSTIONS:
Is there anyway to resolve this issue without replacing both rotors and pads?

Thanks…
