Intermittent wheel/brake vibration

I just got new tires (Kumho Ecsta) for my 2000 9-5 wagon. Now I'm experiencing odd intermittent vibrations, particularly when braking.
It's not bad when driving, and not consistent or at a certain speed like an out-of-balance wheel. It just feels, sometimes, like the road is a bit rougher than it really is.
But when braking, the problem becomes pronounced. Sometimes braking is smooth, but sometimes a vibration seems to come from the wheels. Other times, the brake pedal pulses under my foot (sometimes quite strongly--no, it's not the ABS). The pulsing or vibration slows as the car slows. The amount of vibration and combination of symptoms varies from stop to stop.
A few other nuggets of info: the old tires very very worn on the outer shoulder, so I probably need an alignment. I also had to drive several days on the donut spare because the tires were out of stock.
Any ideas on what I should ask my mechanic to look at? Thanks!
