I got 275-40-17 fronts and 295-35-18 rears and my ABS keeps ******* with me.

I figure I need to get 18" fronts and go from there, I'm even thinking having 295's all the way around to get past that ABS drama which acts up if i happen to blip the brakes in a turn.

Or you could do what I do 17x11's with 315's on all 4 corners. IMHO these cars look funny with any thing less than a 315.

Does the ABS light come on or it just doesn't stop as quickly?

I think I may have this problem was well. It may also be my rotors/pads

Change tire sizes ....OR you can always consider removing ABS using our ABS delete kits dropping weight, cleaning up the engine bay and increasing air-flow and room for other add-ons...and never look back at ABS issues again or being handicapped using wheel combinations you may like/prefer.

Even on some cars as commented not being as sensitive...it doesn't matter, the ABS system is so far out of whack and won't operate correctly, it may as well be disabled as it will hurt your braking performance more than anything.

Kits are listed in the bracking section of the website.
