I firmly believe every car driver should know how his brakes perform. What I mean to say is prove they do work and not pull to either side out of reason as an overall function. I want the front to lock first but in a full panic stop all should be capable of locking up. If only front will lock the bias needs to be adjusted until you prove rears do function. I also want to be sure car won't yank L or R regardless. Beyond these functions you can tweak until optimized. All this can be tested at a reasonable speed and short black marks work without flat spotting the tires.
