Several things come to mind.
(1)Your EXTREME braking created uneven (scalloping) tread wear on your tires which may or may not cure over time as the wear evens out. How much rubber did you lay down?
(2) You dented a rim-check the inside of the rims carefully
(3) You have a bad tire or tires suffering from thermal disaggregration due to the heat and extreme gravitational forces associated of hard braking
(4) Your wheel alignment was thrown off
(5) You bent a strut
If I were a betting man, I would check the tire warranty and closely inspect the tires and rims.
Rule out the obvious causes first.
