Default ABS Engaging

I tried to get some answers about this on another forum and got absolutely no help so hopfully somone can help me here. Basically not too long ago i picked up set of Z06 wheels and tires. Now I have a problem with the abs engaging anytime I brake while turning or just under hard braking in general...any ideas theyre factory wheels 17/18 will the diameter affect anything car origionally had 16's?

~3/4 of an inch difference in diameter front/rear from quick calculations. We've got an ABS delete kit that will correct your problem...if you don't want to delete your ABS then purchase new tires so they are closer in diameters.
