Yes, its normal, put your TT's back on and it will go away........the computer doesn't like when it sees that the tires are spinning at a different rate......

its just way outside the norm of what your computer can compensate for. Thats a damn tall tire, but if you were to happen to go to emergency braking the computer can no longer properly engage abs

The ABS Computer has a table inside it which allows it to make the correct calculations to accurately apply the brakes as needed based on all 4 tires being 25.66". It of course has some variance allowed within that table, but youve changed the rears 2.36" and it does not have the ability to compensate. Your front tires now spin much faster than the rears so it is confused and will not operate properly
