When braking lightly on dry road, ABS engages?
The only thing I can think is that either a) one of my ABS sensors is damaged, or B) Since I put on the new tires (which are taller ET Streets) I need to adjust in Edit the new tire height. The PCM is somehow getting confused about the speed/tire rotations (due to the taller tire) and engaging ABS.
And P.S. I know I need to change anyway so the speedo is correct, and I know I could have changed it in Edit in the time it took to post this but the car is 50 miles away and I don't have access to it until next weekend.

The outer dimensions of the tires need to be really close, otherwise it thinks the tire is out of control due to the difference in speeds. Same thing happens, when I try braking and a tire actual comes off the ground, the ABS computer goes ape-****.
