Default ABS inop question

Hey guys, about 6 months ago, I got 275/60/15 dr's and skinnies on my car. I love them. But with the rears being a 28" tire and the fronts being a 26" tire, my abs is acting up. Its never been a problem until about a month ago, when I was goin kinda fast and the brakes just pretty much failed on me, and I got into a real small accident. Was kinda a wake-up call. So I have read about abs delete kits, and I thinkin this would solve my problem. How would I do it, and do you think this is the anser to my problem? I need to fix thsis quick cause even at the track, slowing down from 115 or 120 mph is tough before I have to exit. No brakes should be like this, this is dangerous, any of your help is appreciated. Thx.

When I use my 28 in slicks and skinnies my abs inop light comes on but my brakes work just fine. I don't know why yours don't or what could be causing it.

Yeah, it confuses me too, would disabling the abs be a solution that I could look into? I know theres alot of people out there with different tire sizes and the ABS INOP problem. Even at the track, I had problems after a full 1/4 mile run to stop in time for turn off. This just isnt safe, and thats why I am looking into fixing it asap. I have tried removing abs fuses in hope to disable the abs, but after removing one, the car wont even start. Also I have hp tuners, is there a way to just disable it this way? Thanks for the help.

I have no Idea. I wound up going with a 9in so I don't have abs anyway.
