[QUOTE="kevinp, post: 12903926, member: 106826"] First time I tried some drag wheels and tires on one of these, fronts are the usual 17x4 with 185/55 M&H radials, rears are 17x9.5 with 295/45/17s. Front tires are pretty short, 26" or so, rears are spec'd at 27.2 but they are closer to 27 or so, about a 1" difference. Anything above 90mph if I hit the brakes (doesnt have to be hard) the ABS, or the TCS maybe, kicks in and it makes it pretty hard to stop. I'm assuming the difference in the tire diameter is confusing the ABS. My '11 never had a problem with the 265/40/18 DRs on the rear, they were quite a bit shorter than the stock fronts, maybe the other way around is worse. Anyone ever have thins happen? I thought I read something a while ago but couldnt find it in a search. Since they are track only wheels its not a big deal but I dont want anything weird to happen at 130mph at the track with the brakes. I really dont want to experiment on the street with it at that speed. It doesnt do it every time. seems to go away if I turn the advance track off but since its pretty random I cant be sure. I could change around the tire diameter ion the tune or just pull the ABS fuse I guess, just wondering if anyone else had the problem. Might be a 2013+ thing also.. [/QUOTE]
