Default what size tire for 17/18 OEM z06 wheels that don't cause ABS problems?

I'm getting a set of OEM Z06 wheels and need to know what size tires to get so that I don't have any ABS problems later. I'd like to keep the rears at 295. thanks in advance.

never mind. I spoke to my uncle and he gave me some very good info. He used to manage a Michelin store in Mexico and helped me look for some tires. He got his calculator and we came up with a combo that should work just fine. 285/35 WR 18 in the back and 245/40 WR17 for the front. I ordered these (Sumitomo) from www.tirerack.com and they should be at my house in a couple of days.

275/40ZR17 front and 295/35ZR18 rear will work as well, the speedo will be off just a touch, but not enough to get the ABS freaked out.
