Problems with ABS because of larger tyres
Hi there I have a 2010 FX4 4 door with 35X12.5 R-17 with the standard rims. I live in a mountain and when I am In the road, driving at normal speed when there´s any turn, the ABS stops either the front right or the front left Tyre. I went to the dealer and they have no clue, they just don´t know what the problem is. They say that the computer does not identify that tyre´s size so it locks the breaks. I am in colombia south América and i beg you all any solution for my problem because I don´t want to go back to those trycicle standard tyres.
THANK YOU ALL

I have 35's on my truck and have no problems with the ABS after recalibrating the speedometer for the right size tires. I went with a Hypertech programmer to recalibrate my truck, but was told by my local dealer they could reprogram the computer for 35's as well. I knew I would be switching between tires and elected to reprogram myself, so I am not sure if the dealer can do it or not.

Start by recalibrating the tire size, thats the easiest and cheapest before tryiing the programmer which is more expensive. (unless you just want one)
I also have 35's and a 6in lift installed by my dealer. They recalibrated for the tire size to compensate for speedo, odometer. I have no Traction control issues. (and i dont have a programmer)
