External Conditions That Affect Brake Performance

TIRES
Tires that have unequal contact and grip on the road will cause unequal braking. Tires must meet the following conditions:
^ Equal inflation
^ Identical size
^ Equal tread patterns for both the right and the left sides

VEHICLE LOADING
A heavily loaded vehicle requires more braking effort. When a vehicle has unequal loading, the most heavily loaded wheels require more braking power than others.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Misalignment of the wheels can cause the brakes to pull to one side.
