I’m thinking the ABS system in these just pulses the fluid pressure in the system if it detects a wheel stopping out of sync with the others.
So I can’t see how it could be expected to resolve an imbalanced system.
If the system too easily locks up the rear tires, for instance on wet pavement, then the ABS will pulse all the brakes and your stoping distance will suffer. You’ll loose the braking power and traction of the front wheels if you lock up the rear wheels.
At least that’s my understanding of these ABS systems. They don’t appear to deal with individual wheels or axles like newer systems.
