Question

I know this topic has been covered before, probably, but is it my car (92 WRX, grooved front discs and Pagid fast road pads) or do other people find that form high speed the brakes are excellent but if doing 30mph approaching a junction or roundabout and you try to stop at the line the anti-lock brakes keep kicking in, despite the tyres not slipping or locking up and you find yourself half way out of the junction, which ain't good! I've had this quite a few times not all the time but a few times (and not always on wet roads). I also wonder if its because of 17" alloys being fitted, does this have any bearing on the anti-lock braking system thinking its locking up when its not, because of the different rolling radius? (I have 215/40/17 tyres fitted).

Any ideas?

Thanks
