Edit: There's a lot for variables on how much rear instability as a car's front dives/rear lifts- how sticky the tires are, braking torque from the brake pads, driver's brake application, hard braking during downhill or uphill...
​​​​​​​Makes sense, thanks guys. I tend to be a [relatively] early breaker, and have been unconsciously braking more lightly lately I think because of this problem. So I probably don't need to do anything too aggressive from the sounds of things. Maybe ~5mm total would be enough.
