I was wondering if this is the best thing to do. I think
that it would be better to increase the effectiveness of the
front brakes as opposed to the rear brakes. Once the fronts
are working better (better pads, bigger rotors, etc.) then
work on the back. My understanding of this is brakes are
biased so the front will lock first. If the backs are better
then they would lock first and the locked wheel always wants
to lead. This is just a couple of thoughts and I am by no
means an expert in the area of braking.
