I could be wrong but it sounds to me there is more pressure being applied to one side then the other, so at higher speeds that slight pull on the rear brakes maybe enough to get it out of shape.

I would always recommend front brakes over rear disc's , for the simple fact if one side is applying more pressure on the front brakes, your car wont loose shape and will still be controllable but just pull to one side.

Just my opinion.

I believe for that setup you may need to run a third servo.

If you have no front brakes then you need to back down the rear brake pressure to ease in without locking it.
If you have front brakes them apply 60% up front and 40 or less in the rear.
