Flat spots?? How bout some more info. Does the wheel go "dead" when though a turn, (like driving on ice,"you turn but goes straight")

Did it start after the tires were rotated? Do you have any suspention mods?

do you know how the pedal feels when brakes are warped? it feels like there are little lobes in the wheel ...only at low speeds. unfortunately the only time frame i can give is that it did not happen when it was new
