Default shut off ABS inop lights and correcting for taller tire size PLEASE HELP

Hello
I have a 01 SS camaro, A built/forged LS6 Procharged 15 psi with meth injection = 740 RWHP

OK the car has been dyno tuned in Speed Density

everything is pretty good, except for the ABS and ABS inop dash lights comming on after about a min or two of driving at 55-65 MPH on highway.

I have taller tires on the back they are 295/45/17's They are Micky thompsons drag radials , they are about 27" tall compared to the 25" stock 275/40/17's

My tuner for some reason cant or dont know how to correct for the taller tires and i guess the VSS sensors are picking up the difference, and throwing the lights to come on.

OK even tho my car is already tuned , if i was to get a Predator hand held programmer could i just use it for correcting for the taller tire size without interfering with my SD dyno tune?

Pleaselet me know, thank you for your help

I dont have experience with the predator, but I do know that my friend used to change his gear ratio and tire size only with his hypertech. surely if a hypertech will do it, so will a predator. lol.

you did not say what size was on the front, but differnt tire hieghts front to rear will shut down ABS and trip the light. You cannot tune around it.
