Tires are on my want list but I just ordered a new set of Forgestar's and tires for daily use so I don't have a lot if tire budget at the moment. I'm running some Michelin pilot sports (bought used) and 18" base model wheels.

yah, could be that your brakes are fine, but tires not having enough contact.
that will obviously lengthen your braking distance due to tire capacity.

bleed brakes too i suppose. GL
