ABS Light on after 28x11.5 tires

[Eric Garttner]

Hey guys so I recently put MT ET Street R tires on my car and after about 2/3 miles my abs light popped on. I figure the 28 tall tire probably tripped the sensor.

Do they make aftermarket sensors for radial/bias ply tires that won't get tripped?

Doubt that’s what caused your issue. Try cleaning your abs toner rings. But I’d almost put money on it being coincidental and it being the ABS module.

Patrick it is no coincidence. 28 on the rear and 26 on the front will cause the abs light to come on.

I had this issue on my wifes GT when we installed the 28x11.5s on weekends. It was kind of intermittent.

I got the same issue. Thought about just pulling the light out of the cluster.

Is there no way to fix it?

You could put a 28” tall tire up front.. It’s caused by the mismatched tire speeds from the different diameter tires from the front axle to rear axle.

Just borrowed a set of 27.5" tall Hoosiers from my buddy. Will see if it fixes the abs light next time I take the car out
