Hey all, I'm having some problem with my brakes heres an example: I'm driving down the road at 40mph I see yellow lights ahead so I slow down with the brake pedal about half way down but once I get to the lights with my brake pedal 3/4 way down the brakes would lock up and my car would skid about an inch. Does that mean I still have air in my brake lines or are the new brakes and rotors just working too well ?? Any input would be appreciated Thanks.
--------------- Brake Specs --------------- -Hawk HPS Pads -Brembo Rotors -ATE Blue Racing Brake Fluid -New Ebrake shoes lol -SS Brake Lines -All Greased up in the right areas And yes I broke in the pads and rotors.

Sorry its been a long day for me lol when I press down about 3/4 on the brake pedal coming to a stop my brakes locks up on me and my car would skid. Feels like I'm getting too much braking power like someone slamming on their brakes when their going 40mph and the car skids/slides.
