    Thumbs down ABS Problems with 20" Rims on a VZ Ute?? NEED HELP BAD

    g'day all
    i put 20" rims on my vz ute on sunday, and when i clock up to 80-90kms it seems to set off the ABS and then its beeps and says ABS fault and then (!) BRAKE. and contiously aswell!!!GRRR but it doesnt happen when i just cruise around town etc.


    also...
    if i put SL king springs in the rear after the guards are rolled. will it sit nice ? and not scrub?

    my mate has ssl king springs with 20inch rims, he has no problems at all. doesnt scrub anything. pretty sure his tyres are either 225 or 235 wide, cant remember and he doesnt have an abs problem, i have 22s on a ve and dont have a problem. u could just have a problem with ur abs?? cause it shouldnt just happen

    is the tyre profile the same for all, if you have say 225/35/20 on the front, and 225/40/20, it will give different speed pulses from the abs sensors and think there is a fault

    maybe get your ABS module checked? Mine just crapped itself and it was doing the same thing as yours. Only going off when giving it a boot and staying off when cruising.

    May have nothing to do with the wheels and is just a coincidence.
