Default brakes or tyres???

hey all, i was driving my S1 falcon the other night and almost took my front bumper off as the car in front (mate) decided to suddenly stop. i was a fair way away before i hit the brakes but the car still did not slow down enough to nearly cause an accident. the problem is in the wet and dry as the car will just take a while to stop. the question is do u's think its the brakes (pretty sure it is) or my sh!t tyres (austyre and talon on 20s). the car doesnt lock up and slide it just takes a while to stop. i was thinking of getting slotted and drilled rotors and some new brakes pads also.

what u guys think please help, i dont want to be losing my front bumper while driving lol

thanks neil
