Default 295/45/17 mickeys and abs/asr lights

Allright guys I see alot of you have this tire. Someone please tell me there's a way to have my cake and eat it too. I want my abs and asr to work but once I put this tall tire on the rear I got all the brake/abs/asr lights on the dash. I have searched like crazy and it looks like there's no way in hell. Btw I have 275/40/17 f1's in front and the mickeys are mounted on 9.5's. HELP!

You have to disable the ABS with those tires. If you don't, the speed sensors will sense different wheel speeds during braking and activate ABS when not necessary (been there). I just pulled the fuse to disable for now, I'll be removing the ABS completely later on.

I do not care one bit about the lights. Best tire selection by far! Talk about getting all my power to the ground in street trim. Wow!
