Car is shaking at higher speeds! Help!

Hi guys, my car starts shaking really bad at speeds above 60km on the road, or when I brake hard. and also the steering wheel tugs pretty bad. I am pretty sure it is caused by my tires which are near the end of it's life span, but I would just like to make sure by getting reconfirmation from you guys! Thanks!

Shaking at high speeds generally comes from tires being unbalanced.

Shaking is from your breaks being bad or just needing to be cleaned.

Pulling is from your allignment being off or just your tires needing to be rotated.

They will check these things for you for free (cept maybe the allignment?) at just about any tire places.

Probably bad tires and warped brakes. The pulling is probably a combination of both
