Wide tires suffer from what is known as tramlining. Even just driving straight down the road you can often feel this effect, but it is worse under braking due to the increased weight transfer to the front.

Zeroing out the toe in front will help reduce it significantly, but you can't eliminate it 100% when the front and rear track is slightly different.
