    Corroded discs alone wouldn't, but if they are warped in any way, then yes. Are you getting a pulsing through the brake pedal when you apply the brakes?

    Is the vibration through the steering wheel or the floor/seats? If its through the floor/seats that generally means the rear wheels need balanced.

    Default

    Corroded or end of life discs normally make excessive noise during light braking
    If there is no noise, there is no issue with them
    The rears are usually worse as they are easier to hear
