Help, brake issue??
It doesnt seem to happen with my regular rims and tires, but on my skinnies and fatties...
When i hit the brakes hard it literally makes me change lanes. It doesnt feel so much as a steering issue, because the car is alligned... and the steeringwheel doesnt pull, its almost as the whole car shifts right.
I was thinking the brakes need to be bled, but it didnt help. Any other ideas?

figured it out... it was my adjustable LCA's. They were uneven lengths.
Im guessing it only affected the the car when it had the drag tires was because it was depending on the rear to stop the vehicle, vs the street tires that depend more heavily on the front.

What comes to mind:
1. Sticking caliper on the passenger side, so it grabs too hard.
2. Weak/non-functional caliper on the driver side, so it does not grab.
3. Somehow the braking isn't being applied evenly, either by something going on in the ABS block (less likely), or a bad/collapsed hose or hard line.

Collasped hose, seized caliper, check for blockage on the left side. Also check front end for wear, if you have a loose tie rod, when you brake it could kick the tire out and pull the car one way.
