Over-tightening the lug nuts will ruin and warp brake rotors in short order. Some vehicles are more susceptible to this than others. Never use an air wrench to tighten lug nuts. Always use a torque wrench. Using an air wrench to loosen lug nuts is fine. Warped brake rotors is most likely what your problem is.

a caliber not free to retract the pad ,will heat up and wave the rotor making it seem terrible

You could also have a problem with the anti-lock braking system. Pulsating of one or more wheels is common with the problem.
