Turn the hot rads right down using the lockshield valve. I usually close them completely then open them 1 turn.
This will cause the hot water to circulate through your cool radiators - water always takes the easiest route around the pipework. keep TRV's fully open when you do this. With luck, if balancing is the problem, this will sort it.
